We invite you to attend a special artist talk at Newfields.

In 1978, Mónica Mayer presented El Tendedero (The Clothesline) an installation at the Museum of Modern Art in Mexico City.  The piece consisted on inviting women of different ages, occupations and neighborhoods to respond to the phrase "As a woman, what I dislike the most of the city is:”  in small pink slips which were placed on a 3 x 2 meter clothesline.   Most answers denounced sexual harassment in the street and public transport.   Over the years El Tendedero has appeared many times, in different communities, responding to issues on violence against women.

Join us for an artist talk with Monica Mayer, as she discusses feminist art since the seventies to contextualizes her work and that of other feminist artists in Mexico, the first event in a city-wide El Tendedero initiative.
