Kaufman's sculptures can go from orderly to helter-skelter, making them seem like willful renegades from an industrial assembly line.

Happy Earth Day! The is currently flying a flag by Agnes Denes with the message "The Future is Fragile, Handle with Care," an urgently essential reminder through the current pandemic and ongoing climate crisis affecting us all.

The flag is flying above the Tate in relation to "the launch of a global 2021 Arts & Health Campaign: a “call to action” launched by the World Health Organization, the nomadic social enterprise Culturunners, and a coalition of cultural partners to counter the mental health crisis of isolation, anxiety and bereavement caused by the Covid-19 pandemic."

Denes' majestic intervention also marks the launch of The Future is Unwritten Artist Response Fund

If you haven't seen "Agnes Denes: Photos of the Mind 1969-2002," it is currently on view in our ADAA viewing room, linked below.

"It’s interesting that when I think of my photographs I see them as projects that supercede documentation. And they are not documentation, but another art form – a newborn development."

The activist, ecofeminist, conceptual artist Helène Aylon was preparing a multimedia installation to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki when she sadly died on April 6th of this year from complications of Covid-19. To honor the memory of this singular artist, and a project to which she was deeply committed, we are pleased to announce a modified, virtual presentation of the exhibition.

Please take a moment to experience "two sacs en route 1985-2020" virtually via the link below. The work in the exhibition stems from Helene's generative body of work stemming from her 1985 trip and actions in Japan, then to mark the fortieth anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
