Radical Art
Where do First Amendment and intellectual property laws collide? Find the answer at the exhibit "Illegal Art: Freedom of Expression in the Corporate Age," hosted by the Resource Center for Activism and Arts. The show explores art and ideas on the legal fringes of intellectual property. Many of the artists in the exhibit – which features paintings, mixed media, sculpture and video installations – have had to defend their works in court. The Resource Center is at 1611 Connecticut Ave. NW (Dupont Circle Metro, Q Street exit). On Friday, May 2, there will be a video screening at 5 p.m. and a reception from 6 to 8 p.m. Call 202/299-0460 for more information.
DC Metro Action is published by Michael Schlesinger, a 32-year veteran of electoral and issue organizing who is committed to social justice and to increasing participation in the political process.
