“…A decade ago, the Times gushed that Rosler was an “art-world provocateur,” tackling issues that even the most jaded observer of political art would identify as tedious and mainstream. According to the Times, Rosler has addressed social issues “as diverse as” the Pinochet coup, “representations of homelessness,” media sexism, the war in Vietnam, and consumer capitalism.

But what will become of the perpetually outraged artist in the event of an Obama administration?”
