The first part of Artists for Workers’ campaign against New York museums and galleries in 2020 began with a protest in June against the New Museum; this poster was one of three that were posted on the museum’s boarded-up facade and used its visual language and branding style to draw attention to its “political inaction and complicity with racial capitalism.”
