Mary Patten’s “Revolution as an Eternal Dream: the Exemplary Failure of the Madame Binh Graphics Collective” examines the political practice and visual propaganda of a now-obscure women’s poster, printmaking, and street art collective based in New York City between 1975 and 1983, calling up the perpetual desire for revolution, but also the frailty of such dreams.
