Special Video Tour of “Marking Time: Art in the Age of Mass Incarceration” exhibition by Dr. Nicole Fleetwood to benefit Revolution Books
Professor Nicole Fleetwood, PS1-MOMA and Revolution Books are collaborating to make available Dr. Fleetwood’s video guided tour of the art exhibition she curated (on view until April 4 at PS1): “Marking Time: Art in the Age of Mass Incarceration.” Dr. Fleetwood offers the video tour as a way for viewers to experience this wonderful exhibition during the pandemic. Tickets to this unique video tour will support Revolution Books: the bookstore that is the beacon for a whole new world.
The exhibition presents powerful works created by 44 men and women living in the hellish conditions of the U.S. prison system — where 2 million+ people are caged, more than any other country in history… in the “land of the free.” These beautiful works are full of feeling and meaning… a passionate declaration of the humanity of those, mostly people of color, whom this system degrades, despises, and casts off.
When you buy a ticket here you will get online access for one week, from March 22 – 29, to Dr. Fleetwood’s 56-minute video tour of the exhibition. Expect to be stunned.
Tickets start at $15, but give as generously as you can so that Revolution Books in Harlem can be sustained as an even more powerful and accessible resource to bring about a world where the chains are no more.
