The Mitchell Art Museum at St. John’s College has announced its spring programming lineup, headlined by the exhibition "In the VIDEODROME: Abjection and Alienation." Opening March 26, the show features seminal video works by Martha Rosler and Pipilotti Rist that critique systemic injustice and the societal treatment of women's bodies. The museum is also continuing its survey of Fluxus artist Ken Friedman, which encourages community participation through instructional art scores.
This slate of exhibitions highlights the museum's commitment to blending historical avant-garde movements with contemporary feminist critique and local engagement. By integrating the NEA Big Read program and a community art show alongside works by internationally recognized figures like Rist and Rosler, the institution reinforces its role as a bridge between academic discourse and the Annapolis creative community.
