Curating as an Act of Political Resistance

 

Pratt Institute School of Architecture | Higgins Hall
61 St James Pl, Brooklyn, NY 11238

 

This session examines community curating as a tool for dismantling power structures. We will explore the Biennial in Resistance, which supports social demands through art. Participants will learn to channel their rage into artistic spaces, facilitating art as a medium for social protest and activism.
