Only 2 weeks to the ‘Visual Activism in the 21st\u00a0Century: Art, Protest and Resistance in an Uncertain World’ event. This event marks the publication of our anthology: \u2018Visual Activism in the 21st<\/sup>\u00a0Century: Art Protest and Resistance in an Uncertain World\u2019<\/a> (Stephanie Hartle and Darcy White (Eds), Bloomsbury Academic. Pub. 25 August 2022).<\/p>\n

The event offers a wonderful opportunity to meet fellow researchers \u2013 both seasoned and early career \u2013 as we explore together the surprising variety of current and emerging practices of visual activism, as activists, artists, and curators flex to the changing world around them in these most uncertain of times. Key questions will be around the different approaches and methodologies appropriate to this relatively new area of academic study; how research is altered by the urgency of these times; the ethical issues and responsibilities that should be considered; and the ways in which our work as academics can be mobilised to help bring about social change. Such current issues, and others, ensure that this promises to be a rewarding day.<\/p>\n

We are delighted to announce that in addition to a selection of presentations by our contributing authors, the day\u2019s proceedings will include two keynote contributions by notable academics in this field of enquiry:<\/p>\n

Suzana Milevska \u2013 Independent Scholar and Curator\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Paula Serafini \u2013\u00a0Queen Mary University of London \u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
