To supplement Joseph Maida’s post-humous collaborative book with Ansel Adams, Born Free and Equal: The Story of Loyal ________Americans, the artist is conducting an installation of a set of his original posters as well as a workshop, in which participants can mark 11 x 17 inch printouts of Maida’s book pages to create their own flyers using the same strategies and materials of Maida’s original work. These flyers will be photographed on site and circulated on Instagram by Maida as a collaborative act via social media as a call to action to institutions to use their platforms and collections to activate broader conversations about the injustices in the current political climate in America, which closely mirror the injustices leading up to and during World War II based on ethnicity, racial profiling, and fear.
