Queens Museum

  (https://queensmuseum.org/) Once you have chosen an institution, move on to answering these questions. 1. Why did you choose this institution? In what sense, according to your understanding of the term, does this institution count as a “community-based-arts institution”? 2. Based on the information on the website, how does this institution obtain funding for its programming? 3. Look through the mission statement and information about past exhibits. Does the mission of the institution and/or the exhibits or performances that the institution supports express political and/or social criticism? What kinds of political ideas or perspectives? Be specific and describe a particular event, performance or artist associated with the institution. How do the works you are describing address political concerns? Here you need to use terms from the chapter such as “indirect” and “direct” criticism.
