Steven Englander (June 11, 1961 - December 12, 2024) was the director and art curator of ABC No Rio from 1998 until 2024.

Early life and education

[edit]

MORE HERE. Steven moved to New York City in 1979 to study film at New York University.[1] He graduated in 1984[2]

ABC No Rio

[edit]

Englander first got involved with ABC No Rio in the late 1980s.[3][3] [4][5] In 1990, he moved into the building and lived there on and off until 1997. As co-director, he curated exhibits and was on-call for building issues.[1] In 1994 he began the three-year fight against eviction.[6] In 1997 Englander and other squatters moved out of the building so that the entire space could be used as a community arts facility.[7]

As a curator, Englander also developed skills as art installer. He curated or collaborated on many shows including:

  • Plain Brown Wrapper (1999) - a protest of Giuliani’s targeting of the adult entertainment industry in his suburbanization of NY[8]
  • Fear, Paranoia and Malevolence (2002)[9]
  • Three Cities Against the Wall (2006)[10]
  • The Art in Zines (2007)[11]
  • Ides of March (2008)[12]
  • Against Competition/Towards Mutual Aid at Flux Factory (2017)[13]
  • Taking It to the Streets (2017) held at the Museum of Reclaimed Urban Space during the "exile" period after ABC No Rio was demolished before being rebuilt.[14]
  • Many "clothesline" fundraisers, where print works were hung on a line and were replaced as new items as art pieces were purchased[15][16][17]

In 2007, Englander established the organization's first archives, processing 25 years' worth of material.[18] Under Englander's direction, ABC No Rio raised millions of dollars to build a new facility.[19]

The initial batch of donations, largely from the collective members and their networks totaled $300,000 by 2004.[20] An anonymous check for $1M arrived in the mail in 2009.[21] That same year "Scott M. Stringer, and City Councilman Alan J. Gerson allocated $1.65 million for a new building."[22] By 2024, the building had received $21,000,000 from the city.[23]

With the funding in place and demolition scheduled, Englander oversaw the move of many of the building's furniture and materials to storage and the zine library's move to Clemente Soto Velez in 2016.[24]

Squatting

[edit]

Englander was a Lower East Side squatter and lived at another former squatted building, now an HDFC co-op, Umbrella House.[25] He and his neighbors built a rooftop garden on the building that became operational in 2015. The building's motto is "From Ruin to Renewal."[25] He wrote the preface for the book Cracking the Movement : Squatting Beyond the Media.[26]

Other Activism

[edit]

Englander was an anarchist who was involved with the Anarchist Switchboard and the Libertarian Book Club and League. Of the former, he stated in an oral history interview "I was actually one of the few people who was responsible for keeping it going."[1] Keeping organizations going was a trademark of Englander's activism.

Death

[edit]

Englander died of a rare lung disease in 2024, six years after receiving a lung transplant. His last days were spent in the hospital with his partner, Victoria Law, their daughter, and other squatters and ABC No Rio regulars including Fly (artist) and Seth Tobocman.[27]

Steven Parking Lot

[edit]

"No Rio’s director, Steven Englander, said the show was inspired by questions about how Donald J. Trump’s potential effect as president might be compared to Ronald Reagan’s. Mr. Tobocman, co-editor of a long running political comic book called World War 3 Illustrated, added that one aim of the exhibition was to explore links between contemporary protest movements and past political activism on the Lower East Side that focused on local and national issues."[1]

"Mr. Stringer arranged for a capital grant of $750,000, citing ABC No Rio’s resilience and cultural value. The rest of the money came in the form of a grant of $450,000 from Mr. Gerson’s discretionary budget, which was matched with another $450,000 by the City Council. The money will be controlled by the Department of Cultural Affairs."[2]

"In addition to supervising a gradual move, Mr. Englander is preparing for the building's final art shows, scheduled to open on June 10. One will exhibit work documenting the building. The other, called "InFinite Futures," will present artists' visions of what the No Rio site could look like in five, 50 and 500 years."[3]

New building[4] "The basement and ground floor of the new building will be completed within about 20 months, Englander said, and the three upper floors will be left partly finished, with walls, windows, ceilings and lighting, but little else. Additional work on those floors will take place during a second phase of construction that has yet to be scheduled, he said." ALSO "“I went to a performance, and I saw Steven Englander bounce a cop out of the backyard,” said Becky Howland. “It was kind of amazing to me. I was like, OK, that’s pretty cool.”" AND "What they needed was a new building, which required a new level of partnership with No Rio’s old nemesis, the city. Englander, who had given up his squat after the original agreement, took on the task of assuaging the anarchists within the organization.

“I say, I make the compromises so you don’t have to,” he said."
