The Strikebreakers, Jonathan González

Artist Jonathan González presents *The Strikebreakers*, a unique performance piece running across several days at Carnegie Museum of Art as part of the 59th Carnegie International. This is a durational artwork—meaning it unfolds over time—that combines choreography, sculpture, text, and movement in unexpected ways. The performance takes place in the Grand Staircase and explores connections between steelwork and dance, drawing inspiration from the history of African-American workers and the Carrie Furnaces archives. You can watch the performance unfold during daytime hours, with sessions running from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. This is a great opportunity to experience contemporary art that's grounded in Pittsburgh's own industrial heritage. Best of all, admission is free with regular museum entry—no separate ticket required. If your family enjoys thoughtful, unconventional art experiences, this meditative performance offers something different from typical museum visits.
