Anissa Mack's artworks
emphasize quality and a genuine relationship with the
viewers. She invites people to join the dialogue while
viewing her works, which are not always located in galleries.
In her 2002 project 'Pies for a Passerby,' Anissa Mack
baked apple pies in front of the Brooklyn Public Library
and placed them on a cottage windowsill for people to
take. The project explores what happens when you place
a classic image of small-town America in the Big Apple.
The New York Times wrote, 'It’s an idea of testing
the icon and seeing how it does in practice.' Ms. Mack
has exhibited and performed at sites including the Socrates
Sculpture Park, Long Island City, NY; P.S.1 Contemporary
Art Center, Queens, NY; San Francisco Institute for
the Arts, San Francisco, CA; and The Pineapple Project
Room, Malmö, Sweden.
