The connections between artistic expression and activism may not be self-evident but are worth examining. This relationship between art and social change will be discussed by Art Historian and Professor of Visual Arts and Environmental Studies at Harvard University Carrie Lambert-Beatty on Wednesday, February 6 at 7:30 p.m. in the Beam Classroom in the Visual Arts Center.
Lambert-Beatty will deliver the lecture, “Just Art,” which examines how activism is expressed through art. She will explore the importance of visual and performance art in sending powerful social messages.
