Broken Boxes: A Decade of Art, Action, and Dialogue
Broken Boxes: A Decade of Art, Action, and Dialogue celebrates ten years of Ginger Dunnill’s podcast of the same name and exalts the intersectionality of contemporary artists. Intersectionality studies the overlapping and intersecting social identities and related systems of oppression, domination, and discrimination. Here are twenty-three extraordinary artists bringing the creativity of their processes and identities to life in the Albuquerque Museum’s exhibition and in this accompanying book. Broken Boxes delves deeply into the realm of intentionality, challenging not just how artists create, but why. And Broken Boxes—the podcast, the exhibition, and the book—thrives on bringing artists together in dialogue with each other through the artist’s own words. This book provides an opportunity to introduce the larger public to artists committed to creating, sustaining, and encouraging solidarity. By opening up the conversations across communities, groups, art practices, materials, and shared space, we hope to demonstrate how artists are forging new forms of action.

About the Author

Originally from Maui, Hawai’i, New Mexico–based creative Ginger Dunnill is the founder of the Broken Boxes podcast, a decade-long celebrated underground broadcasting project amplifying systemically undervalued voices in the arts. A producer, journalist, curator, community organizer, and sound artist, Dunnill collaborates with artists globally, creating work that inspires human connection, promotes plurality, and advocates for social justice. Over the past two decades, Dunnill has produced numerous social-engagement projects, community programs, and public exhibitions globally.

Josie Lopez is the head curator and curator of art at the Albuquerque Museum. In addition to curating temporary art exhibitions, she oversees the collection and the permanent exhibition Common Ground: Art in New Mexico. Lopez completed a BA in history and a Masters in teaching at Brown University. She completed her PhD at the University of California, Berkeley. Lopez’s research and curatorial interests include examining art as a discursive agent in the political arena, the intersections of art and the environment, modern and contemporary Latin American art, and the history of Mexican and New Mexican art.
