"Handbills of Subversion - Tremendous Art from Losers, Nasty Women and The Gays" opened on January 20th—inauguration night—at MF Gallery.  The proceeds from this show will benefit Planned Parenthood and the ACLU. All pieces are priced at $120.

In this time of great anxiety, fear and hate crimes throughout the United States, the worst we can do is become quiet and complacent.  The pending Trump administration has threatened our civil liberties, inspired a rash of hate crimes and is on its way to normalizing sexual assault and bigotry. While we still have the right, this show will exercise freedom of speech, our freedom of expression, our freedom of the press.

It's time to lace up our boots. Be the light in the dark corners. Stand up. Create. Say something.

Before the age of social media, the best and cheapest way to advertise a show or event was to print up handbill:  cut and pasted on  8.5” X 11” piece of paper, xeroxed and quartered.  Collections of handbills over the years remind us of the places we had been, the bands we saw, and the events we attended.  The goal of Handbills of Subversion is to provide a snapshot of the future’s collective anxiety through the perspective of the best visual communicators working today.

Handbills of Subversion is curated by Sara Antoinette Martin.  Participating artist list is below. After opening night, the show will be open by appointment only.

Contact Martina Secondo Russo at info@MFgallery.net to schedule a visit, or to purchase.
