Institute Of Contemporary Art (12:30 P.M. Lunch; 2 P.M. Tour)
Focusing on the work of black women artists, We Wanted a Revolution: Black Radical Women, 1965–85, examines the political, social, cultural, and aesthetic priorities of women of color during the emergence of second-wave feminism. It is the first exhibition to highlight the voices and experiences of women of color—distinct from the primarily white, middle-class mainstream feminist movement. We’ll have a private tour of the exhibition, which features performance, film, and video art, as well as photography, painting, sculpture, and printmaking, by a diverse group of artists and activists who lived and worked at the intersections of avant-garde art worlds and radical political movements. Possibility of a ferry ride to East Boston to visit the newly opened ICA Watershed in the Boston Harbor Shipyard. Meet at 12:30 p.m. for lunch (restaurant TBD) or at 1:45 p.m. at the Museum for tour only. BHV members, their guests and prospective members: $12. Members of the ICA: $3.
