View the poster.
Jenny Marketou will show examples of her recent work and will discuss the potential of art for social and economic change, institutional critique and collectivity, and the politics of representation.
Recent oppositional movements such as Occupy and Black Lives Matter have demonstrated how acts of cultural-political resistance and commemoration are closely linked to questions of space and public access. The abovescreeningsanddiscussionwill explore how an image, an art object, and/or performance can not only refer to some past occurrence, but can also perform and project its agency into a world beyond its initial presentation. How does one’s position vis-à-vis such struggles enable or obstruct our ability to see, read, or understandart?
