Alicia Grullón Risk-Taking and Radicalism by Keren Moscovitch
Alicia Grullón is a multidisciplinary artist who uses New York City’s streets to instigate socially and politically motivated performance interventions. Grullón seeks to actively change the spaces in which she operates, in collaboration with the myriad diverse communities of the city. Her work as an artist-activist exemplifies the symbiotic relationship between artist and place. She is on the faculty of SVA’s City as Site summer residency, and is teaching a new SVACE course, Radical Aesthetics of Art.
