According to the Exhibition description at the MIT List Visual Arts Center "The 50th anniversary of the atomic bomb developed at the Los Alamos Laboratory and first detonated in the southern New Mexico desert on July 16 1943 inspired artists Meridel Rubenstein Woody and Steina Vasulka and Ellen Zweig to probe the ironic juxtaposition of two very different elements of American society. 'Critical Mass' a multimedia installation examines the unusual meeting of J. Robert Oppenheimer and other Manhattan Project scientists with the American Indians of San Ildefonso Pueblo whose land adjoins Los Alamos New Mexico. Their worlds fused at 'the house at Otowi Bridge' Edith Warner’s Rio Grande riverside home where both groups patronized a small restaurant she operated during the 1940s." Born in Detroit Michigan in 1948 Rubenstein received her bachelor's degree in social science with a film-making emphasis from Sarah Lawrence College and a Master's and M.F.A. degree from the University of New Mexico. She is the recipient of fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation the National Endowment for the Arts and the Pollock-Krasner Foundation and has taught photography at San Francisco State University and the Institute of American Indian Arts. The New Mexico Museum of Art the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and Smithsonian American Art Museum are among the institutions with her works in their collections. She currently lives and works in Santa Fe. Rubenstein inscribed our copy to its original owner Arizona collector Arnold Horwitch.
