Spoke to @BBCWorld #NewsDay on the anti-army protests in Pakistan on May 9. No revolution underway but the events will impact the future of civil-military imbalance. In fact this is an extraordinary moment even as the military prepares to fix its former favorite.

After the last class of topics in independent media at @icjournalism — with really smart and motivated students. Their final projects are fascinating — from covering immigration at US-Mexico border to mental health and from media literacy to the rights of sex workers. Wishing them all luck and success.

Well, #iphone made this video about my May, 2016 visit to #pittsburgh where I read a chapter from a book that has changed so many times that the earlier drafts are unrecognizable like parts of my younger self.

The Struggle of the Two Natures in Man George Grey

The Struggle of the Two Natures in Man
George Grey Barnard (carved 1892–94)

‘While living in Paris, Barnard labored on this work— his most famous—for over six years. After the single block of marble was roughed out in Italy, Barnard finished carving the sculpture himself. In 1894, he exhibited it in Paris under the title Je sens deux hommes en moi [I sense two men in myself ]…Barnard used sculpture to explore all aspects of the human condition; here, the figures are treated dramatically in order to evoke the inner life of man. The batlike creature on the left arm of the lower figure may refer to the darkness in which man’s baser nature is mired.’ Description via @metmuseum #sculpture #art #tweet

A few weeks ago I finally saw the sculptures #Witness and #Now created by @shahzia.sikander — both are multi-layered pieces that bring together Shahzia’s intimacy with detail and adept handling of scale. Witness at @madsqparknyc celebrates and elevates womanhood with roots as a primary metaphor. Now is even more dramatic: a self-assured woman on a courthouse roof viewed among a group of nine robed men. Both pieces of #publicart challenge the misogynistic, neo-fascist discourses and the attack by US Supreme Court on women’s bodies. Shahzia makes us all proud!
Here’s a quote from the statement: “How we experience art, how we respond to it and how we interpret it is an open-ended premise. As an artist, it is my intent to create something wonderous and with many possible associations—something that can generate thought and produce difference.” #lategram #nyc #nycart
