SUMMARY:Jewish Museum: Virtual ASL Tour
DESCRIPTION:Participants in the ASL community are invited to explore the exhibition Ben Shahn: On Nonconformity through a virtual tour led by Alexandria Wailes. \nBen Shahn\, On Nonconformity examines the prolific and progressive artist’s commitment to chronicling and confronting crucial issues of his era. Featuring artworks and objects from the 1930s to the 1960s\, the show includes paintings\, mural studies\, prints\, photographs\, commercial designs\, and ephemera. \nThe exhibition draws its title from Ben Shahn’s credo of “nonconformity\,” which the artist asserted as an indispensable precondition for both significant artistic production and all great societal change. His work investigates issues such as unemployment\, discrimination\, authoritarianism\, and threats to freedom of expression\, while championing labor\, civil\, and human rights. Shahn’s later spiritual work\, which embraces the Hebrew language and biblical stories\, also reflects his exploration of a tradition of social justice activism within Jewish culture. \nDue to limited capacity\, ASL students will not be admitted to the program and no voice interpretation will be provided.  \nAll Access Programs are free of charge and require advance reservation. If you have any questions or need accommodations\, please contact access@thejm.org or 212.423.3289. If you are interested in observing this program\, please reach out to us before registering.
