Thrilled to finally see @NicoleFleetwoo2’s long-awaited curated show #MARKINGTIME: ART IN THE AGE OF MASS INCARCERATION on the reopening day of MomA PS1.
Haunting pencil sketches by Mark Loughney (b. 1977), a “portrait series depicting mass incarceration from the site of captivity.” Hundreds of drawings on any paper he can get, making a “performance marking penal time.”
