Conversation: Tania Bruguera and Dread Scott: "Political Art Is Uncomfortable Knowledge" at the Brooklyn Museum. 12/10. 7PM
Join us for a conversation between Dread Scott and Tania Bruguera, artists who use their work as a tool for social change.
For the opening program of the exhibition Agitprop!, the Brooklyn Museum will host a conversation between Dread Scott and Tania Bruguera, artists who use their work as a tool for social change. The discussion focuses on the political issues that their art addresses and the strategies they employ to combat the demonization of immigrants, institutionalized oppression, and police brutality. The artists touch on historical precedents of agitprop that influence their work as well as the most urgent issues facing society today. As such, this conversation is an opportunity not only to learn from history, but to see art as a way to fight for a more just future. Presented by the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art.
Free with Museum admission.
