Description:

Guerrilla Girls are an anonymous group of feminists devoted to fighting against sexism within the visual fine art world. Started in New York City in 1985 to protest gender and racial inequality in the art world, members are known for the gorilla masks they wear to keep their anonymity, as well as for taking pseudonyms of dead women artists. The website lists their art projects, videos, lectures and appearances, exhibitions, and action projects.

Fales Library: d.u.m.b.A collective

Archived since: Aug, 2015

Description:

Founded by Scott Barry, the DUMBA Collective (1998-2006) was a non-profit arts collective in the DUMBO neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. It was devoted to the contemporary art practices of the queer community. They offered space to local and international artists, primarily queer, and gave the majority of the profit back to the artist. The Collective was both a living space and an anarchist community center. It is most known for their Lusty Loft Parties and a filming location for John Cameron Mitchell's Shortbus. DUMBA lost its lease in 2006. This archived website is the MySpace page for the DUMBA collective. MySpace was a social networking website most active in 2000s. It describes planning for a sex party, fliers from events at DUMBA, and well wishes from DUMBA's MySpace friends.
