About this event
The Tribeca-selected documentary on Mierle Laderman Ukeles, the ecofeminist artist-in-residence at NYC's Sanitation Department since 1977, who declared childcare and housework to be performance art. Rare archival footage and interviews trace how she turned 'maintenance' into one of the century's sharpest political art statements. A panel discussion follows the screening.
