The Strikebreakers by artist Jonathan González is a site-based, durational artwork presented as part of the 59th Carnegie International. González works at the intersections of choreography, sculpture, text, and time-based media. The Strikebreakers is an ensemble performance exploring the shared citational movement vocabularies of steelwork and dance–including touch, proximity, transmission and embodied communication–to consider the intramural relations of African-American workers in the visual and oral archives of the Carrie Furnaces.
By transposing and augmenting these scenes of Black labor through a new score for durational performance, The Strikebreakers intends to highlight the nature of entanglement that undergirds the site of work.
