"Cultural workers across the United States and beyond are presenting hundreds of events this weekend as part of Fall of Freedom, an art and activism series staged against the dramatic political backdrop of President Trump's creeping authoritarianism. Exhibitions, performances, interventions, and more will begin on Friday, November 21, and run through the weekend. Some are on view much longer, interpreting the "urgent call to the arts community to unite in defiance" for months to come."
"Curated by Rachel Raphaela Gugelberger, this show coalesces various research-driven creative practices rooted in illuminating and reclaiming suppressed histories. Among the featured artists are Nicholas Galanin, Alicia Grullon, Yevgeniy Fiks, Dread Scott, Kenneth Tam, and the late Nona Faustine - each known for restaging harsh American truths and what they've yielded for marginalized populations across the country through photo, video, sculpture, installation, and reinterpreted archival materials."

Events begin Friday, November 21, and run through the weekend, with some programs remaining on view for months to interpret an "urgent call to the arts community to unite in defiance." A compiled list of 16 events includes an anti-fascist zine fair in San Francisco and an exhibition of Palestinian embroidery in Upstate New York. An Incomplete Haunting at 601Artspace, curated by Rachel Raphaela Gugelberger, gathers research-driven practices reclaiming suppressed histories and features artists working across photography, video, sculpture, installation, and archival reinterpretation.
