NOBODY PUTS BABY IN A CORNER is a series of feminist gatherings in NYC through 2009-2010 initiated by Malin Arnell and Johanna Gustavsson, two Swedish artists currently attending the Whitney Independent Study Program. The idea is to create an ongoing feminist discussion, inviting artists, activists and theorists to share fascination, indignation and excitement about societal structures, private parties, political fiction, personal faction and all those situations that constitutes everyday life. The project itself aims to expand experiences of collaboration and develop participatory practices. With our activities we hope to contribute to the overthrowing of male supremacy, ethnical supremacy and of hierarchies connected to physical and mental ability, sexuality and class. We will frame the meetings through feminist pedagogy.
Each occasion is open to 20 participants and RSVP is necessary. All activities are free.
