Anti-Trump Aerobics
Participatory Performance, 2017.
In collaboration with Margaret McCarthy.
Description
Anti-Trump Aerobics is a 40-minute, live and participatory workout routine protesting Trump’s election to office. Staged in San Francisco as part of 100 Days Action -- a curated set of artistic interventions in response to Trump’s first 100 days in office -- participants were given aerobics props of long, red neckties and led through aerobics moves that prepared them for lasting and embodied protest to the new US administration. Anti-Trump Aerobics believes that ongoing political resistance requires creativity, humor, and physical endurance.
