 The large scale exhibition “investigates gender’s place in contemporary art and culture at a moment of political upheaval and renewed culture wars” and features over forty artists including Vaginal Davis, The Dyke Division of the Two-Headed Calf, Sondra Perry, Tschabalala Self, Paul Mpagi Sepuya, Patrick Staff, Diamond Stingily, Geo Wyeth and Anicka Yi among many others.

A refusal of categorization or singular position, the exhibition brings together works that represent, abstract, contradict and complicate. From video, film performance and installation to painting, sculpture and other craft-based mediums, the works explore “gender beyond the binary” for a more fluid understanding of identity.**

The Trigger: Gender as a Tool and a Weapon group exhibition at New York’s New Museum opened September 9, 2017 and ran to January 21, 2018.
