Abstract
Maintenance Art by Mierle Laderman Ukeles from 1969, in which she discusses the problem of social exclusion in its multiple forms, i.e. exclusion of women from the art world; exclusion of reproductive and care labor etc. It is preceded by the Artist's Introduction from 2014, where she discusses her artwork from the 1970s, conducted in the New York City Department of Sanitation and the Introduction by the Translator, situating the Manifesto and subsequent artistic practice in the theoretical and political context.License
