Can Art Heal Nations? The Artistic Activism After Atrocity project examines how post-atrocity societies remember and engage with past violence, particularly the role of art in changing minds and attitudes that can lead to meaningful reconciliation.

 

 

Art Exhibition at the University of Arizona Museum of Art
I am co-curating (with Dr. Anita Huizar-Hernández, Department of Spanish and Portuguese), an art exhibition entitled In Transit: Arts, Migration, and Resistance at the University of Arizona Museum of Art. The exhibition runs September 16, 2017-March 11, 2018.

Fall Lecture and Symposium
Huizar-Hernández and I are also organizing an accompanying multi-day symposium November 1-2, 2017. Additional details can be found at www.intransitart.org.

 

We are still tinkering with a couple of things, but here are some photos (taken with my phone!) of the show.
