Many thanks for @karengutfreundart for her post and including my #metooboutique Trump drawing in the recently published book #notnormalartintheageoftrump #Repost @karengutfreundart with @get_repost ・・・ #CuratorLove Karen Mainenti @kmainenti with “I Pledge to Be a Better Man” Shaving Cream by Donald Trump, U.S. President (Barbasol) (2019), graphite on paper, 25.5 x 19.5 inches in the chapter “Stable Genius” in “Not Normal.” Mainenti is an amazing, prolific, feminist artist with an incredible body of interesting work, both hard hitting, reflective and so witty at the same time. I quite frankly cannot pick a favorite amongst her drawing, collage, sculpture and paintings, I’m in love with them all. A snippet from her artist statement on her website, www.karenmainenti.com: “My work is a re-engagement of appropriated text and images from consumer products, advertising and media. By reframing these messages—often with humor—I’m attempting to reveal the absurdity and unnatural expectations that society has come to accept as commonplace. I’m specifically drawn to exploring gender identity, because of its exceedingly elusive construct and the ways it impacts our perceptions of ourselves, interactions with others and cultural foundations.” #feministart #supportwomenartists #enoughoftrump #bidenharris2020 #protestispatriotic #artasactivism #protestart #powerofpoliticalart #makeadifference #activistart #karenmainenti #notnormalartintheageoftrump (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH_5_9PlBcH/?igshid=xipy06cbu8a6
