Does Art = Activism?
Art, and its creation and production, is often seen as a pathway to activism, communicating concrete events through abstract forms, expressing resistance and/or community solidarity, and serving as a tool for healing, reconciliation, and memorialization. But art can also reflect a staid status quo and an acceptance of current power structures.
This online workshop will bring together artists, activists, curators and scholars to interrogate art’s role in activism and social change.
