Art Work During a Pandemic
Work detail
Art Work During a Pandemic is a mixed-media zine distributed by the Red Bloom communist collective that includes a survey and index. The survey was distributed to art workers in New York, asking questions related to labor, the profession, and social reproduction as well the post-Covid transformations of work, spirit, and relationships to art and art-making. Its index defines key terms utilized throughout the survey such as capitalism, labor, alienation, communism, abolition, work, healthcare, unions, and housing. This collage zine contains vivid images of collage and protest art, deconstructed photographs of nature and explosions in the backdrop of each page while blocks of cutout black text also paint each page. On the cover the colors of the rainbow appear with the Art Workers Inquiry logo pasted three times on the bottom of the cover and printed on sturdy paper. Keywords: art, communism, covid-19, capitalism, labor, alienation, survey, artists, work, Art Workers Inquiiry, Red Bloom
