Chinese artist and political dissident Ai Weiwei opened not one, not two, but four new shows in New York City last week. In this episode, we delve into “Laundromat,” on view at Jeffrey Deitch—the latest work by Ai to engage with the European refugee crisis.
And we ask: Can artists move the needle on public reaction to humanitarian crises?
Where we’ll be drinking white wine in the art world this week:
“Pipilotti Rist: Pixel Forest” at the New Museum, on view through Jan, 15th, 2017
“Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty” at the Brooklyn Museum, on view through April 2nd, 2017
“Gay Gotham,” on view through Feb. 27th, 2017, and “Activist New York” at the Museum of the City of New York
