About this course
During times of turmoil visual artists have opened up new ways of engaging with social and political events in different cultures and geographies around the globe. They have responded to revolutions, wars, gender and race discrimination, migration, injustice, inequality, and many other relevant issues that are at the core of society. What has been the contribution of visual artists during times of conflict? Why has social activism been so central for artistic practices around the globe? This course will give students a broader understanding of the role of the arts in our society, as they learn from a variety of socially-engaged strategies created by artists to battle inequality, racism, injustice, and all forms of authoritarianism.
