Art | Activism Lecture Series
The Art + Activism event series is a joint program of the Art|Global Health Center at UCLA and the UCLA Art|Science Center, with their respective departments, World Arts and Cultures and Design|Media Arts, the Theater, Film and Television department, and the Chicano Studies Research Center. These departments work together to present an event series featuring activist artists in various forms. Seeking to explore, deconstruct, and reconstruct critical dialogue around the phrase "arts activism," ten lectures and a symposium were presented touching on topics as diverse as activist puppetry, border disturbance art, and peace over violence. A website was created to document the presentations and web streams for the series.
