After the revolution, who`s going to pick up the garbage?
Join Lilith magazine for a screening of "Maintenance Artist," the first feature-length documentary about groundbreaking artist Mierle Laderman Ukeles, at IFC Center. Ukeles has been a revolutionary force in contemporary art since the 1960s, becoming the NYC Sanitation Department’s first artist-in-residence in 1977, and achieving global artistic celebrity. Born in Denver to an Orthodox rabbi, most of Ukeles’ work presents as secular, but it’s driven by a radically humanist and feminist understanding of Orthodoxy.
Stay tuned afterward for a talkback with Emmy-nominated filmmaker Toby Perl Freilich and Pamela Grossman, who profiled Ukeles in the latest issue of Lilith.
When: Sunday, April 26, 3:15 pm
Where: IFC Center, 323 6th Ave, New York, NY 10014
