But political conversation is encouraged at one restaurant in Pennsylvania. Indeed, it inspires the cuisine. Welcome to Conflict Kitchen, a takeout spot in Pittsburgh that only serves food from countries in conflict with the United States. Created by Jon Rubin and Dawn Weleski, Conflict Kitchen features a rotating menu of food native to countries like Cuba, North Korea (Manduguk, or vegetable dumpling soup) and Iran (Khoresht-e Kadoo, or Persian lamb stew with zucchini and tomatoes on steamed rice). The idea began as an interactive art project that has since become a full-fledged business.

SIZE: 12 acres 2006: Reizenstein Middle School closes. 2007: Renovations begin. FEATURES: Proximity to Downtown 2008: Barack Obama International OWNER: Walnut Capital Studies Academy opens. 2013: Walnut Capital Purchases the INTENDED USE: Office Space, Residential property from the City of PAST USE: Middle/High School Pittsburgh. CONTAMINANTS : Asbestos 2013: Demolition begins onsite. TOTAL PREDICTED COST: $120 million HISTORY / SITE CONTROL The site is located on Penn Ave. near Fifth Ave. in Pittsburgh, PA. Historic maps of the site reveal that the parcel was home to a Baptist church circa 1882, Dollar Savings Bank in 1890, and Bauer Brothers & Co. Bakery as late as 1910. The former Florence Reizenstein School was built by the City of Pittsburgh in 1975. The school was named after the late Florence Reizenstein of Pittsburgh, a beloved human rights activist. The facilities were state-of-the-art and positioned at the border Shadyside and East Liberty, poised to attract an integrated student body from a variety of neighborhoods and ethnicities. By 1977, the Reizenstein School had become the largest middle school in the district. This overcrowding, coupled with rumors of discipline problems, deterred many white families from enrolling their children there. According to the Post-Gazette.com, by 1986, the school population was 75% black. Many parents and students reported getting a great education at Reizenstein, but its reputation of poor academics was hard to shake. In 2002, Reizenstein middle school was placed on a list of federal “improvement schools” under President Bush’s “No Child Left Behind Act,” based on its students’ low math and reading scores.

Firstly, I would like to thank my colleagues, Mya Adams, Craig Cole, and Megan Refice, for their friendship and conversation, without which I would have not pursued the topic of Michael Rakowitz. Further, I would like to thank my thesis chair, Dr. Charissa Terranova, for her criticism and sharp direction. Her ability to give constructive comments not only improved my ability to write but also allowed me to explore ideas in a succinct and direct fashion. Moreover, I express my gratitude for the Nasher Sculpture Center and their curators, Jed Morse, Catherine Craft, and Leigh Arnold, for making my curatorial internship valuable and worthwhile. Installing Rakowitz’s The invisible enemy should not exist exhibition was a treasured experience and aided my thesis greatly. The Nasher has also been kind enough to allow me to present my work on Rakowitz at their 2020 Nasher Symposium which will be accompanied by a forthcoming publication.
