A.L. Steiner is an American multimedia artist[1][2][3][4] born in Miami, Florida—currently working and living in Los Angeles, California. Her solo and collaborative projects use constructions of photography, video, installation, collage, performance, lecturing, writing and curatorial strategies through a queer, eco-feminist lens.
Selected Solo and Collaborative Work[edit]
Participation in the 2014 Whitney Biennial[edit]
A.L. Steiner describes her installation-based work in this year’s Whitney Biennial—More Real than Reality Itself (2014)[5]—beginning as “a conduit to viewing other subjective histories” which has become “a platform for questioning intentionality and the relationship [Steiner has] to documentary or archival forms—a fragile and precarious place for both the object and subject.” [6]
Community Action Center[edit]
In 2007 A.L. Steiner and A.K. Burns began working on Community Action Center —a 69 minute socio-sexual video utilizes erotics to express the personal sexual and political lives in the group. Filmed around New York State and Los Angeles the work was completed in 2010. [7] [8]
In 2013 Burns and Steiner took the video on a 14 city screening tour—Community Action Center or BUST!: The X-Cuntry Summer Tour—the spanned ten states. The year’s experiences culminated in an evening performance at The Kitchen, NY, in October of 2013 with a live score by Justin Vivian Bond, Nick Hallett with Sam Miller, K8 Hardy, and other artists from the Community Action Center soundtrack.[9][10]
W.A.G.E.[edit]
A.L. Steiner is a co-founder and organizer of Working Artists and the Greater Economy (W.A.G.E.) a New York-based activist group founded in 2008 that advocates for artists, performers and independent curators working with U.S. institutions to be compensated for their work. [11]
