UPCOMING EVENTS
Art+ Activism #22: Feminist Art Activism and Artivism with Katy Deepwell
Sunday, April 26, 10:30 am to Noon PT
on Zoom
Katy Deepwell lives in London, is a feminist art critic, as well as founder of KT Press and editor-in-chief of n.paradoxa: international feminist art journal. Katy will explore key ideas in feminist art activisms around ecofeminisms, based on her publications to date. She will contrast political definitions of activisms with approaches to artivisms, where art practices take priority over protest. This distinction matters in thinking about different feminist strategies which artists use and how their diverse approaches to art-making convey political dissent, speak about issues or determine their approach to exhibiting.
Stay tuned for details about our upcoming 30th birthday party for WEAD.
