Social Impact: Artistic Activism

Throughout history, effective activists have utilized the affective power of arts to win campaigns for social change. The goal of this participatory and discussion-oriented interdisciplinary seminar is to develop a theoretical and practical understanding of this "artistic activism." Informed by scholarly writings as well as current and historical case studies from around the world, students will put theory into practice as they develop their own artistic activist interventions.
