Images at Work: Solidarity and Form
June 2 - 21, 2026
“Solidarity and Form” gathers oblique, abstract approaches to the representationally overdetermined subject of the worker.
The film and video program Images at Work is conceived as an offshoot of and appendix to Performing Conditions—dependent on the whole, even as it supports it. Each thematic program screens for three weeks in the Bakalar Gallery. The films screen on a loop during gallery hours.

Joyce Wieland, Solidarity, 1973. 11 min.
Karimah Ashadu, Lagos Sand Merchants, 2013. 10 min.
Kevin Jerome Everson, Sound That, 2014. 12 min.
