Event Description
Taking its title from a 1952 quote by former Michigan Congressman George A. Dondero—best known for his widely publicized claims that modern art was a Communist plot hatched to bring down the US—this exhibition explores the historical ties between modern art and twentieth-century communist movements. Comprising prints, drawings, sculpture, and reenacted speeches, Fiks’ installation imagines an artistic trajectory located between fact and fiction, between accusations from Washington and directives from Moscow, posing questions on the fundamental relationship between Communism and Modernism.
 
Exhibit closes November 6.
