The outdoor exhibition “Monuments Now,” at Socrates Sculpture Park, in Long Island City (through
March), feels attuned to this unprecedented summer of American reckoning. The eye-catching ziggurat
“Because Once You Enter My House, It Becomes Our House,” by Jeffrey Gibson (pictured)—a member
of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians and a 2019 MacArthur Fellow—doubles as a stage for a
trio of indigenous American artists, whose on-site performances will be filmed and released online.
