Abstract
I have been in the art world since I co-founded the magazine Parachute in 1975 and had always worked in art institutions until 1994, when I decided to leave my position at the New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York in order to push the limits of my profession, to work differently. After leaving the museum, I developed The Quiet in the Land, a series of projects that seeks to probe conventional notions of gender, work, and spirituality; to redefine the making and experiencing of art; and to challenge the widespread belief that art and life exist in separate realms.
