Alt Knowledges explores alternative values through the work of Amy Suo Wu, Danielle Aubert, and Hardworking Goodlooking. This student-led series of solo-exhibitions presents models for challenging entrenched colonial and capitalist systems through privacy tactics, worker-run presses, and a rethinking of modernist design values. For the opening event, Danielle Aubert will share about her practice, and her research on The Detroit Printing Co-op.

In addition to at the event launch, Turn on the Invisible Layers with Amy Suo Wu, No. 7 with Danielle Aubert, and Unfaithful Kami with Hardworking Goodlooking can be viewed online at altknowledges.com during irregular open hours beginning in January 2021.
