September 21, 2013 – February 16, 2014[/size]

This is the first exhibition to examine the lasting impact that Riot Grrrl, a pioneering global punk feminist movement, has had on artists and cultural producers working today. A youth subculture that had a pivotal influence on those involved, it inspired many members of this generation to pursue socially and politically progressive careers, as artists, activists, authors, and educators.

New work by contemporary and international artists are presented alongside archival materials.

Artists: Ginger Brooks Takahashi (Pittsburgh), Tammy Rae Carland (Oakland), Miranda July (Los Angeles), Faythe Levine (Milwaukee), Allyson Mitchell (Toronto), L.J. Roberts (Brooklyn), Stephanie Syjuco (San Francisco).

Archival materials from: EMP Museum, Seattle, Interference Archive, Jabberjaw, the Riot Grrrl Collection at the Fales Library & Special Collections, NYU, and many personal collections
