For the NYC readers (which to my guesstimate is probably all 4 people that actually follow this blog...including yours truly), peep this new exhibit that just opened up at the Museo del Barrio in Harlem....
....Arte ≠ Vida: Actions by Artists of the Americas, 1960 – 2000, which will be on view from January 30 through June 8, 2008. “Arte no es vida” surveys, for the first time ever, the vast array of performative actions created over the last half century by Latino artists in the United States and by artists working in Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Mexico, Central and South America. Curated by Deborah Cullen, Director of Curatorial Programs at El Museo del Barrio, Arte ≠ Vida is the recipient of a prestigious 2006 Emily Hall Tremaine Exhibition Award.
The press release came out on Jan 17, 2008 (didn't get it) but I stumbled across it recently. I've been to the museum before--for thos interested in multicultural, socially conscious art--check it out
