| Item Description: | "The Toward Common Cause Legacy Project, in association with The Richard and Mary L. Gray Center for Arts and Inquiry, The University of Chicago ; with the support of The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation." "The exhibition explores the extent to which certain resources--air, land, water, and even culture--can be held in common. Raising questions about inclusion, exclusion, ownership, and rights of access, the exhibition considers art's vital role in society as a call to vigilance, a way to bear witness, and a potential act of resistance. Presented on the 40th anniversary of the MacArthur Fellows Program, Toward Common Cause employs the Fellows Program as 'intellectual commons' and features new and recontextualized work by 29 visual artists who have been named Fellows since the award program's founding in 1981" -- TowardCommonCause.org. |
