What to See in the US Now Frieze Week s Over

‘There must be two Americas,’ wrote Mark Twain in 1901. ‘[O]ne that sets the captive free, and one that takes a once-captive’s new freedom away from him, and picks a quarrel with him with nothing to found it on; then kills him to get his land.’ The quote is from Twain’s essay, ‘To the Person Sitting in Darkness’, in which the writer condemns Western imperialism in southeast Asia. The artist Stephanie Syjuco borrowed Twain’s title for her 2019 work: a flag for the then-US territory of the Philippines as described by Twain, resembling the American design but with ‘white stripes painted black and the stars replaced by the skull and cross-bones’. –

Stephanie Syjuco s Native Resolutions Won t Let Racism Remain Filed Away

 (Courtesy Catharine Clark Gallery) In her latest solo exhibition, Oakland artist Stephanie Syjuco powerfully demonstrates how photography is one imperialism’s most effective tools. Made by mining archives for images of Indigenous Filipinos, her show at Catharine Clark Gallery, Native Resolutions examines photography, anthropology and archiving as overlapping knowledge structures that shape both imagination and American history.

Sweat. Musicals.” The “blood” bailiwick was especially well served by the company’s 2015 take on “Lizzie,” the Tim Maner, Steven Cheslik-DeMeyer and Alan Stevens Hewitt rock musical about Lizzie Borden, who was tried for a double ax murder in 1892. The show imagines one of American history’s most gruesome crimes with both humor (song titles include “40 Whacks” and “What the F ”) and poignancy: “In the house of Borden there’s a lock on every door; in every room, a prisoner of a long, silent war.”
