Lotty Rosenfeld: Disobedient Spaces, the first solo retrospective of Rosenfeld’s practice in the U.S., illuminates her many contributions to critical dialogues about public space, from large-scale video projections to her iconic street intervention One Mile of Crosses on the Pavement (1979), in which she crossed the white directional lines of roads. The exhibition contextualizes her collaborative work with CADA as well as her solo endeavors, positioning her as a central hub in a larger network of the Latin American “escena de avanzada” (the advanced scene/avant-garde scene) that merged activism with poetry, creating spaces for creative resistance. The exhibition also demonstrates Rosenfeld’s influence on younger artists in Chile, as her conceptual rigor and aesthetic subtlety provides a lesson to those seeking tools for how to intervene within dominant systems of power.
