Cheryl Donegan speaks with Artforum

“Cheryl Donegan: Scenes and Commercials,” a retrospective curated by Johanna Burton at the New Museum through April 10, 2016, covers over twenty years of this New York–based artist’s humorously feminist assessments of pop culture via performance, painting, video, and fashion. Donegan talks to artforum.com about the development of this exhibition in addition to her artistic coming-of-age in the Lower East Side during the 1980s.
