Visiting Artist Lecture
Implementing Arte Útil
Join artist Tania Bruguera to hear about Arte Útil. Arte Útil is a way of working with aesthetic experiences that focus on the implementation of art in society where art no longer functions as a space for “signaling” problems, but the place from which to create possible solutions. In Bruguera’s words, “We should go back to the times when art was not something to look at in awe, but something to generate from. If it is political art, it deals with the consequences, if it deals with the consequences, I think it has to be ‘useful art.’ ”
