An Occupy Love Screening: OWS Arts & Culture's First Encounters with Wall Street

Occupy Wall Street Arts & Culture's first activities on Wall Street focused on rhetorical poetry were a confrontation -- not unlike the Situationist art of Guy Debord and the Situationist International, prominent artists of the May 1968 events in France.  These situations were aimed to provoke a memee with society about Wall Street on Wall Street, the now zombified public forum.  Jez Bold will offer a public memee session with members of the original team of Occupy Wall Street Arts & Culture, who helped plan and perform a campaign of direct aesthetic actions on Wall Street, performances that attempted to set the stage of Wall Street before September 17, 2011 and the beginning of the occupation.

SCREENING: Wall Street Stunts! OWS Arts & Culture before September 17

SCREENING: Wall Street Stunts! OWS Arts & Culture before September 17

On September 1, 2011, a group of unsuspecting individuals wandered down to the front of Federal Hall Memorial with the intent of pulling a harmless stunt: to have a sleep-over on Wall Street!  Little did they realize this little performance, this playful act of bravery, would result in 9 arrests (the first of OWS) and help instill many activists into new life.

In the early days of the OWS general assemblies, the Arts and Culture group helped plan and perform a number of direct aesthetic actions on Wall Street that helped set the stage for Occupy Wall Street as a movement.  Tonight ____, we offer a look back at some of the first appearance of this movement to be caught on video.  We'll be gathering several members of the original Arts & Culture team to be in attendance to comment, tell stories, and answer questions!   We're going to #memee all about it!  If you wish to learn about the inventive origins of Occupy Wall Street, we encourage you to attend!

The “Spatial Occupation” residency at Hyperallergic will generate screenings, a reading group, exhibits, performances, demonstrations, artist talks, workshops, teach-ins and much more over a two-month span.
