Dara Greenwald Presente
We certainly didn’t know Dara well, but every time we saw her and her work, she impressed us with her sense of humor, her creative vision, her dedication to making the world a better place. We talked to her and her partner Josh at the amazing Exit Art exhibit, showcasing radical art from around the world, whether watching her videos or perusing Just Seeds who’s work covers our walls at home, and tabling at the Left forum, and weren’t they there on that first morning of Occupy Wall Street.
And she was always cool, but not too cool, interesting, but also interested, and was just the bees knees. There is a special place in our hearts for the people who work behind the scenes to make the world a better place, who do so with a sense of humor, and who remind us through their work that the call is for bread, but also for roses. In that way, it is with great sadness that we note her passing, but also with some acknowledgement, no matter how bitter it may feel in this moment, that whenever change for the better blossoms, she will be with us still.
Dara Greenwald Presente!
