Exploring art in response
Visual cultures and glocal concerns
Seiten
This book shows how artists, educators, and scholars confront challenges in their societies. It explores the legacy of colonization, the preservation of heritage, the unmaking of dominant knowledge systems, and the reshaping of memory and history from below. Issues like gender and socioeconomic inequality are addressed across global contexts. Together, these perspectives offer ways to reimagine collective agency in the arts as a means to confront shared and specific concerns.
Exploring art in response - Visual cultures and glocal concerns demonstrates the various ways in which artists, art educators and scholars address the challenges that impede our respective societies. The concerns unpicked in these chapters include the afterlife of colonisation that continues to affect our understanding of art from the Global South; the work of preserving heritage, of unmaking epistemological frameworks, of (re)making collective memory and of newly shaping history 'from below'. Issues that cut across communities from South to North, such as gender- and socioeconomic inequality, are similarly engaged. In addressing both common and unique challenges, the book provides opportunities for reimagining the ways in which our collective agency in the arts may help us prevail over the concerns that impact us.
