Reminder: this Thursday, on February 17 at 17:30 GMT (18:30 CET) Grant Kester will present a lecture titled “The Aesthetics of Answerability: Tactical Autonomy in Contemporary Socially Engaged Art.”.
In this talk he will examine some of the ways in which contemporary socially engaged art has transformed existing conventions of artistic and aesthetic autonomy, associated with the historical avant-garde. Through a series of examples, he’ll outline the unique forms of insight that these projects can generate, through the synthesis of both tactical and prefigurative elements in the act of resistance.
