It was a thrill for me to record a short excerpt of one of my favorite speeches for Peter Sacks' amazing audio-visual exhibition, Resistance, with 92 of these pieces. Nehru gave this speech precisely at midnight, Aug. 15th 1947 @RoseArtMuseum @SWGallery257 instagram.com/petersacksstud…

I’ve seen the RESISTANCE show of Peter Sacks’ 92 awesome portraits at the Rose Art Museum at Brandeis University in Waltham, MA, and I recommend it highly. It’d be worth a trip from anywhere on earth to see it. Breathtaking barely states it. A true MUST SEE. — Laurence Tribe

I’ve seen the art in Peter Sacks’ immersive Resistance exhibit and it is inspiring beyond measure. These portraits form a luminous aesthetic record of moral courage in the political world, a story which invites us not just to behold but to join the collage of freedom struggle.

"In the paintings where it's there—the tenderness—I work for it. I'm not afraid of it. If I could put my bleeding fucking heart in there, I would."
Susan Rothenberg was an absolute inspiration. RIP to an art hero.

Susan Rothenberg's career is a sterling example of how difficult it can be to predict the eventual resonance of work. Of the horse paintings that defined her life, "I never would have guessed that they would ever even be shown," she said a few years ago. artnews.com/art-news/artists…

Susan Rothenberg, whose understated images of horses influentially ushered in a return to figurative painting, has died at 75 artnews.com/art-news/news/su…

Susan Rothenberg (1945–2020)
As a pioneer, she extended the boundaries of painting—especially for other women artists. #susanrothenberg
