“ACT UP New York: Activism, Art, and the AIDS Crisis, 1987–1993” (White Columns, New York)Curated by Helen Molesworth and Claire Grace, this show was a reminder that the “art world” can be a repository for the vital and the inspirational, a staging ground for passionate calls to action, with threads leading in multiple directions: MPA’s A performance for Emma Goldman and Ulrike Meinhof at Cleopatra’s; curator Dean Daderko’s “Pièce de Résistance” at Larissa Goldston Gallery; Keith Hennessy’s Crotch (all the Joseph Beuys references in the world cannot heal the pain, confusion, regret, cruelty, betrayal, or trauma . . . ) at Dance Theater Workshop; Wu Tsang, Zackary Drucker, Mariana Marroquin, and Rhys Ernst’s PIG (Politically Involved Girls) at X Initiative; Eve Fowler’s 43 Books at Apartment 2 . . .
