I recall reading at the initial hearing the artist had several women dressed identically in attendance performing choreographed movements in the courtroom. She sounded absolutely delighted at the idea of being sued over this, because her entire point was putting men in a position that usually only women are in, and vice versa
As the parties sparred, the museum’s supporters were somewhat stealing the spotlight. They had periods of complete stillness and silence, before moving in some kind of subtle, synchronised dance - crossing their legs and resting their heads on their fists, clutching their hearts, or peering down their spectacles. One even sat there pointedly flipping through feminist texts and making notes.
Kirsha Kaechele is delightful. Unfortunately, I don’t know how much of her old Ayahuasca - consuming self is left, she mentioned herself she became a lot more conservative.
Still, she did a bunch of interesting projects: Eat the Problem, 24 Carrots, a rap themed gun buyback in
New Orleans…
Now that I think of it, this post is mostly me reflecting what I think of her as an artist these days. I was having a hard time coming to terms with the fact that success in the art world often forces the artist to adapt and conform, and I could see some of that in her as well. I have to say though, she is probably doing a good job and I shouldn’t be complaining.

I think there have been performances at most of the hearings, in and outside the court.
