A Social Studies Initiative

Josh Greene:
Some Parts Might Be Greater Than the Whole

A Social Studies Initiative

Arizona State University Art Museum

February 18 through May 18, 2008

"As Greene continues to engage the community, you might enter the Museum to find one of the following occurring, which are current thoughts in the mind of the artist:

* The artist available as an actor in artists’ videos and other student/amateur productions.
* A crew of legally hired day laborers creating, writing, acting, and producing a television series.
* A pancake breakfast.
* A telemarketing operation with lots of rows of desks with telephones and telephone books on each desk.
* A basketball hoop and a challenge to people for games of "H-O-R-S-E".
* A chain gang doing some sort of work, maybe non-physical labor.
* The artist helping people re-enact moments from their childhood."
