Modes of Resistance

This year, 1-54 Forum has been curated by Julia Grosse and Yvette Mutumba, founders and editors-in-chief of Contemporary And (C&) and Contemporary And América Latina (C&AL) and takes place under the title, “I felt like a Black guy from New York trapped in Peru.” Over three afternoons, 1-54 Forum will be engaging with creative Afro-Latin American, Caribbean and African perspectives.

Modes of Resistance

Saturday, 10 October
14:00 – 15:00

What role does or should play contemporary art in moments like these? On a political, personal, global scale? Why is it crucial? Or isn’t it? What role play important notions of solidarity and self-care? This panel invites artists and academics to discuss current urgencies and strategies in the context of the Brazilian art scenes. This includes academic and artistic perspectives.

Speakers include ROSANA PAULINO (Artist, educator and curator), LUCIANE RAMOS SILVA (Dancer, independent curator, choreographer and anthropologist), ENORÊ (Artist) and moderated by RAQUEL VILLAR-PÉREZ (Assistant Curator at Photoworks and researcher).

Please note, all talks are Zoom webinars and need to be registered for.
