Biting Back - Art for a Good Paws raises money and attention to the good and tireless work of local animal rescues in New York City. Our first show was a response to the Guggenheim's mishandling of the ‘Dogs That Cannot Touch Each Other,’ video from the Art And China After 1989 exhibit. If you aren’t aware of the piece, it demonstrated actual animal cruelty, and the Guggenheim curated it as “art.” Although the piece was removed from the exhibit after massive petitions, traditional protesting, and an outpouring of people expressing general disgust via social media, the Guggenheim claimed to only have pulled the piece for their own safety, not due to any ethical reason.

Our 5th installment is now traveling to Long Island City, NY at Wag & Bone Daycare. SAVE THE DATE February 28, 2026 12-8pm Art, Raffles & more. All proceeds will be donated to Second Chance Rescue NYC.
