Mierle Laderman Ukeles’ work redefined the scope of contemporary art by focusing on the often invisible labor that sustains society, creating a dialogue between art and everyday work. Her Maintenance Art project, initiated in the 1970s, was groundbreaking in its exploration of domestic labor, which she elevated to the level of fine art through conceptual and performance-based works.[1]Ukeles' involvement with the New York City Department of sanitation as the first artist-in-residence in 1977 set a precedent for artists, integrating community engagement and institutional collaboration into their practice.[2]

If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |
