Barbara Kruger’s response to Supreme’s legal battle with Leah McSweeney
Members of Ukrainian feminist group Femen staged protests across Europe as they called for a “topless jihad.” The demonstrations were in support of a young Tunisian activist named Amina Tyler. Last month, Tyler posted naked images of herself online, with the words “I own my body; it’s not the source of anyone’s honor” written on her bare chest. The head of Tunisia’s “Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice,” reportedly called for Tyler to be stoned to death for her putatively obscene actions, lest they lead to an epidemic. Tyler has since gone quiet, leading some to fear for her safety.

good news. I’m making a 22 x 28 broadsheet newsprint poster for my graduation take away. If you’re in chicago, you should come grab one at the Columbia College Chicago, Photography Department BFA/BA Exhibition (“Manifest”), reception is being held May 17th at 1006 S. Michigan Ave. I’ll also probably be distributing them around town in various stacks because I don’t know what I’ll do with 1000 of these bad boys. If you’re out of town and would like one please feel free to send me an email ( megtnoe@gmail.com ) and I’ll send one out your way.

Where is your studio exactly and how long have you been working there ?
I’m currently finishing an MFA at the University of Illinois at Chicago, where I have a studio in the West Loop of Chicago. It’s the best studio I’ve ever had, so I’m sad to be…
that philodendron gets a lot of play in this interview. I’m going to hate things when he moves. already missing my crazy freund
it’s probably the laziest playlist I’ve ever made. just a selection of songs I found particularly good for whatever reason that you can download and hit shuffle. really shuffle is the best way to listen to them. there’s no title even. but for some reason I get that martin creed band “if you’re lonely..” song stuck in my head when I try and think of one. it’s all over the place. but mostly a romantic/totally depressed vibe. as always. I think you might like it.
best,
