An “emergency” exhibition titled “Abortion Is Normal” has opened at the Eva Presenhuber gallery in New York City, the proceeds of which will benefit Planned Parenthood’s political action efforts.
Downtown for Democracy, an organization that states on its website it has “transformed our community’s cultural influence into political power,” has produced the exhibition and will use some of the proceeds for voter education regarding reproductive rights.
The exhibition is co-curated by feminist activists Jasmine Wahi and Rebecca Pauline Jampol and organized by artists Marilyn Minter, Gina Nanni, co-founder of Downtown for Democracy, Laurie Simmons, and Sandy Tait. All the exhibition’s art pieces will be sold online through art marketplace Artsy.
Helen Holmes wrote at Observer, the “Abortion Is Normal” show, “perhaps predictably, features a true murderers’ row of incredible artwork for sale.”
The show is billed at Artsy as “an EMERGENCY exhibition organized by a collective of cultural practitioners as an urgent call-to-action exhibition to raise both awareness and funding in support of accessible, safe, and legal abortion.”
“Abortion Is Normal” features a variety of artworks, including a portrayal of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (“RBG”) by Jane Kaplowitz – listed by Artsy as “sold”; a letter to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh by Judith Hudson, titled “Leave Us Alone,” that states, “Dear Judge Kavanaugh, If you don’t like abortions don’t get one” ($3,500); a “Stitch n’ Bitch” cross-stitch, by Katrina Majkut, that depicts the words, “Abortion is Normal” ($50); and a piece called “Control” by Minter ($11,000).
