WACK! Radio: Art and the Feminist Revolution

Art Radio WPS1.org presents a collection of special programs featuring historic interviews and discussions with artists whose work ignited or has been influenced by the feminist revolution. We have collected new interviews with key participants and gathered archive programs that reflect, illuminate, or embody the principles and practices that were pioneered by the feminist art movement. These programs are presented in association with P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center’s presentation of WACK! Art and the Feminist Revolution, the first comprehensive, historical exhibition to examine the international foundations and legacy of feminist art, from February 17 through May 12, 2008.

Visit our WACK! page to view the archive contents and listen on-demand to historical programs and new recordings from the P.S.1 WACK! Performance and Special Events Series that took place Feb. 16-March 15, 2008.

New on Art Radio: A Guide to Culture in Downtown Manhattan

Radio Profiles is a project of Art Radio WPS1.org developed in association with The Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, Bomb Magazine, and The Film-makers' Cooperative. Designed to operate as an audio guide to downtown Manhattan cultural groups, the project is centered on a collection of short audio portraits of organizations, spaces, and activities as described by the people who manage them. The goal of the Art Radio Guide is to provide information, generate interest, and expand audiences for downtown culture (still somewhat struggling in the long wake of September 11, 2001). We welcome all to participate. Qualifying cultural groups can email us at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it to set up a recording session.

We hope you will take advantage of the many new features and functions. Behind it all is thousands of hours of cultural programs, music, talk, and beyond. Always a little adventurous and a little irreverent. We welcome your comments, questions, and kudos at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
