The Signs of Change exhibit at Exit Art features an array of mass-mobilizing posters, photographs, movies, and recordings that chronicle social-justice movements from over 40 countries. The causes range from civil rights in the United States to democracy in China and the global AIDS crisis. The show is intended not only to illuminate the past, but to inspire social change now; perhaps that's why Exit Art brought on curator Josh MacPhee, whose brainchild, Justseeds, brings radical art to the public, and why it invited the Tactical Ice Cream Unit to cater the opening. The group dispenses its customary progressive pamphlets along with creamy treats.
