A photograph of a 2017 performance of Amalia Pica’s “Asamble” in the rotunda at the Solomon R Guggenheim Museum. In Asamble, performers carrying chairs enter a public space in a single-line formation, and begin to arrange in seated circles. Just before the circle is completed, the first person in the group stands up, and walks to another area, and starts to form another circle. The performance is a commentary on the difficulties faced by grassroots organizers and protest groups.
