The Transitive Property of Equality (2015)

New York Times

Rapoport read the New York Times front to back almost every day, and was drawn to the bold imagery and manipulative language of the full page advertisements. At this late stage of her career, Rapoport was sorting and cataloging her extensive archives, and she arranged images of her early work onto pages selected from the newspaper and framed by quotes reflecting her interest in subjects ranging from economic theory to art history to psychoanalysis to poetry. These collages were then used in interactive installations that gathered viewer responses which Rapoport tabulated, analysed, and re-presented in drawings and video works.
