Stein describes her artistic goal as focusing on \u201coppression of the Other through the lens of anti-bullying and social justice.\u201d Traumatized by the events of 9\/11, Stein writes that after the destruction of the Twin Towers, her artwork became armor-like as a means of protection. She gradually incorporated pop culture references into her work to address issues of power and vulnerability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She is the Founding President of Have Art Will Travel!, Inc., a non-profit corporation that \u201cinspires the Bullied, Bully and Bystander to become the Brave Up-stander and Everyday Hero.\u201d It was through Have Art Will Travel! that The W Galleries was gifted the set of prints in this exhibition in 2024. The prints were selected based on the demographics of our student body. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the donation was arranged through Have Art Will Travel!, the donation was funded through the generosity of feminist historian Dr. Barbara Winslow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>March 3 \u2013 April 4<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":48,"featured_media":9338,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18,9,7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9337","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2025-2026-exhibitions","category-exhibitions","category-past"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9337","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/48"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9337"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9337\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9339,"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9337\/revisions\/9339"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9338"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9337"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9337"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.muw.edu\/art\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9337"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
