NYC's Brooklyn Museum plays host to a fantastic group show between April 21 - September 17, 2017. Focusing on the work of black women artists, “We Wanted a Revolution: Black Radical Women, 1965–85“ examines the political, social, cultural, and aesthetic priorities of women of color during the emergence of second-wave feminism.

Presenting a diverse group of artists and activists who lived and worked at the intersections of avant-garde art worlds, radical political movements, and profound social change, the exhibition features a wide array of work, including conceptual, performance, film, and video art, as well as photography, painting, sculpture, and printmaking.
