Citizenship: A Practice of Society

Oct 2, 2020 – Feb 14, 2021
1485 Delgany St, Denver, CO 80202, USA

At a time when the world is in turmoil and political polarization is extreme, 30 artists have banded together to mount an exhibition about civic responsibility. Here, art is presented as a critical civic act, and the intent is to demonstrate political engagement. News clippings, voting stickers, flags as well as arresting photographs and slogans—all created since 2016—invite viewers to engage with the world around them. Among the exhibitors: LaToya Ruby Frazier, Nan Goldin, Titus Kaphar, Trevor Paglen, Nari Ward, and Yoko Ono. —E.C.
