Artists are among the most powerful cultural agents we have. They help us shape our culture, or at least start a conversation about it. This was the theme of our panel at @universidadecatolicaportuguesa with @debkass @anasokoloff and Lisa Phillips. We talked about creativity as freedom, about respecting an artist’s intention even when it doesn’t align with the political discourse of the moment, and about the hardest skill of all: truly hearing points of view different from your own. Using the arts for diplomacy isn’t just symbolic, it’s strategic. Never underestimate the influence of soft power! Thank you to my wonderful guests, to the students in the room, and to @lxconsortium for another unforgettable conversation in Lisbon 🇵🇹 06 Nov 2026

Back in the classroom at @universidadecatolicaportuguesa, and this time with three extraordinary women by my side! I was thrilled to welcome @debkass @anasokoloff and Lisa Phillips for my lecture, “Cultural Diplomacy Today: A World in Need,” followed by our panel, “Who Gets to Decide? Institutional Power and Global Art Markets.” Each of them sees cultural diplomacy from a different side of the table. Deb is an artist whose work hung in the Ambassador’s Residence in Lisbon. Lisa led the @newmuseum for decades. Ana connects collectors, artists and institutions across New York and Latin America. Together we asked: What does it mean for an artist to lend work to a government space? Who protects a museum’s independence? And when public support shifts, who steps in? Our art is our message abroad. At a time when long-standing partnerships are being re-examined, the people-to-people ties we build through culture matter more than ever. Thank you to my wonderful guests, to the students in the room, and to @universidadecatolicaportuguesa and @lxconsortium for hosting us! Next stop Porto! 03 Nov 2026

Deborah Kass is a New York–based painter and sculptor whose work fuses Pop Art, Abstract Expressionism, and popular culture to examine identity, gender, and how art history has been written. Her landmark Warhol Project, begun in 1992, recast Warhol’s visual language around women artists and personal heroes, and her monumental OY/YO sculpture became a beloved Brooklyn landmark, with a version now at the Brooklyn Museum. Her work is held by MoMA, the Whitney, the Guggenheim, the National Gallery of Art, and the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery. A graduate of Carnegie Mellon University, she received an honorary doctorate there in 2025. Deborah Kass will be in conversation with Lisa Phillips and Ana Sokoloff, chaired by Amb. Randi Charno Levine. The panel discussion "Who Gets to Decide? Institutional Power and Global Art Markets" takes place on 2 November at 18:30 in Auditorium 511, Católica Lisbon School of Business & Economics. The event is open to public.

Happy Birthday to my shero, inspiration, and favorite theatre geek, the indefatigable Hillary Clinton! She never quits fighting the good fight. Hope you have a phenomenal day! #hillaryclinton @hillaryclinton #stillwithher 26 Oct 2026

Monday morning breakfast with Madame Secretary @hillaryclinton in support of Attorney General @newyorkstateag Letitia James! Hosted by the indomitable Patti Askwith Kenner and @tristatemaxedoutwomens. With two former Congress members in the house: @carolynbmaloney and #ElizabethHoltzman (of Watergate fame). What an inspiring way to start the week! #vote #era #hillaryclinton 19 Oct 2026

League artist, Deborah Kass is the artist behind OY/YO, one of New York’s most iconic contemporary works of public art. “Yo,” a familiar greeting, and “oy,” an exclamation of frustration, are both baked into Brooklyn’s shared vocabulary thanks to the influence of local Black, Italian, and Jewish communities. But OY/YO was about more than a clever play on language. As Kass reflects in this interview, opportunities to create public art have been historically rare for women. For decades, New York’s public spaces were dominated by men. With OY/YO, Kass claimed space and helped open the door for more women to do the same. This year’s Gala takes inspiration from Kass’s 2010 sculpture After Louise Bourgeois, a tribute to the French-American artist featuring a spiraling neon light bearing the words: “A woman has no place in the art world unless she proves over and over again that she won’t be eliminated.” Celebrate Deb on November 10 and RSVP with the link in bio. #ArtStudentsLeague #ASLNYC #DebKass 15 Oct 2026

Hotel Hasler, Rome 2024. With Devon Dikeou. What a light. What a loss. @devondikeou @zingmagazine #devondikeou 09 Oct 2026

In 1974, Louise Bourgeois wrote that "a woman has no place as an artist until she proves over and over that she won't be eliminated." In 2010, Deborah Kass appropriated Bourgeois's complaint in her neon sculpture "After Louise."⁠ ⁠ On November 10, 2026, the Art Students League's Gala will be a rebuttal to anyone who believes that women artists have yet to make history, and a celebration of three great women in the arts: Louise Bourgeois, Deborah Kass, and Christine Mack.⁠ ⁠ Join us and reserve your seat with the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ #ArtStudentsLeague #ASLNYC #LeagueGala2026 07 Oct 2026

Thrilled to celebrate the unveiling of Deborah Kass’s EVERYBODY, EVERYBODY at 92NY! Across twelve brilliantly colored canvases, neon alternates between “everybody” and the Hebrew “kulam”. At 92NY, the neon’s glow evokes light’s associations in Jewish tradition with creation, learning, and hope. Visible from the street, the work extends 92NY’s welcome beyond the lobby to the neighborhood. I’m so proud to have helped bring this commission to life as a member of 92NY’s Art Committee. Congratulations to Deborah and the entire 92NY team! Pictured with Deborah Kass and 92NY president Alyse Myers. The commission is featured in The New York Times—I’ve linked the article in my Story. #DeborahKass #92NY #PublicArt 24 Sep 2026

Summer reading. Some of these books have spanned several summers and still are not finished. Didn’t get thru all by any stretch. 07 Sep 2026

Using post-modernist “appropriation,” Deborah Kass pays wry homage and pointed critique to male art icons in works such as the “Warhol Project,” substituting Barbra Streisand for Jackie Kennedy. Outraged by the Senate’s dismissal of Anita Hill’s sexual harassment testimony, Kass and others formed The Woman’s Action Coalition to protest inaction on women’s rights. Her sculpture OY/YO is a monument to cross-cultural connection and her commitment to art and activism.
