Art, Love and Politics in the 80s-ICA Jan1->

This Will Have Been: Art, Love & Politics in the 1980s
Tuesday, Jan 1, 2013 10:00a to 5:00p
The 1980s brought us Reaganomics, the AIDS/HIV crisis, feminism, and a change in the art world. The role of artists and the rise of globalism are explored at "This Will Have Been: Art, Love & Politics in the 1980s," an exhibit of more than 100 works by 90 artists. The show is divided into four sections: "The End Is Near," "Democracy," "Gender Trouble," and "Desire and Longing." - June Wulff, Globe Staff

An ambitious historical overview of the main currents of art-making in the 1980s, from neo-expressionism
and appropriation art to the rise of conceptual photography and abject art. - Sebastian Smee, Globe Staff
