Re: Group – Beyond Models of Consensus was an exhibition that examined models of participation and participation as a model in art and activism. It was curated, organized, and designed by Paul Amitai, Mushon Zer-Aviv, and Not An Alternative, featuring work by thirteen artists, designers, hackers, activists, and collectives exploring both the potential and limitations of participation, networked collaboration, and distributed labor.
The exhibition represented a diverse range of critically and socially engaged work that reimagined institutional practices within urban planning, civil engineering, transportation, industrial design and production, relief work, and the news media.
Participants included The Yes Men; Evan Roth & Ben Engebreth; Ubermorgen; MakerBot; Aaron Koblin & Takashi Kawashima; Ushahidi; YoHa (Harwood, Yokokoji); The Institute for Infinitely Small Things; Giana González; John Hawke; Christopher Robbins, John Ewing, and Carmen Montoya.
