A Matter of Respect
The exclusive community of Pompano Island features a daily interaction between the ultra-rich owners and the many men and women who work in the homes and on the yachts. But recently a few rich tyrants have gone too far, and the little people decide to strike back, using very direct and inventive measures.

Picturing the Proletariat
In the wake of Mexico’s revolution, artists played a fundamental role in constructing a national identity centered on working people and were hailed for their contributions to modern art. Picturing the Proletariat examines three aspects of this artistic legacy: the parallel paths of organized labor and artists’ collectives, the relations among these groups and the state, and visual narratives of the worker.

Lear shows how middle-class artists, radicalized by the revoluti...
Bullies
Bullying can occur at all ages and in all types of relationships: in the family, at school, at work, and even between countries. James Laurent is an intelligent young boy from Philadelphia who is bullied during his early years by kids and also by some adults. As he becomes an adult himself, he faces even more difficult challenges until his shame and anger cause him to reach the breaking point. In order to seek revenge for his past, Jamie sets a course of action to punish the people, the city, and the country that have betrayed him. The actions of just one man can have national and international implications, extending in this case all the way to war between Israel and Iran!

King Lear
Is King Lear an autonomous text, or a rewrite of the earlier and anonymous play King Leir? Should we refer to Shakespeare’s original quarto when discussing the play, the revised folio text, or the popular composite version, stitched together by Alexander Pope in 1725? What of its stage variations? When turning from page to stage, the critical view on King Lear is skewed by the fact that for almost half of the four hundred years the play has been performed, audiences preferred Naham Tate's optimistic adaptation, in which Lear and Cordelia live happily ever after. When discussing King Lear, the question of what comprises ‘the play’ is both complex and fragmentary. These issues of identit...
