Contemporary Art and Activism
This PhD would examine aspects of the vexed relationship between art and activism.
Research Opportunities
Summary
Through a variety of case studies, it would seek to draw out what artists can learn from activists’ strategies, and what activists can learn from artists, based on a grounded theoretical understanding of the roles that both play in contemporary visual culture and politics.
What have the consequences been of the recent “political turn” on contemporary art, and how have activists sought to use artistic strategies to convey a political message?
