With an unprecedented number of people living in displaced environments, contemporary artists have addressed the anxious social conditions of uprooted subjects in transnational environments.
Yet while the discourse around socially-engaged art is now quite established (for example through Nicolas Bourriaud's 'Relational Aesthetics'), it has remained limited to the questions of the political and ethical character of community formation. This event will consider how socially-engaged art practices have confronted globalisation's stateless subjects and transnational social relations.
With John Akomfrah, Ayreen Asastas and Rene Gabri, Claire Bishop, Tania Bruguera, Nina Montmann, Anand Patwardhan, Emma Ridgeway and Pooja Sood, moderated by TJ Demos.
