Art as Resistance in Fabricated Imaginaries [Virtual Program]

Join Rose Art Museum staff members Madeleine Delpha and Yasmine Vera for an engaging virtual conversation that explores how artists harness creativity to confront violence, respond to social unrest, and imagine paths toward change. Centered on works in Fabricated Imaginaries: Crafting Art, this program highlights how “fabricated” forms, drawing from craft, performance, and material experimentation, become powerful tools for activism and resistance.

Together, we’ll consider how artists, such as Nick Cave, Tuesday Smillie, Jeffrey Gibson, and others, transform personal and collective histories into spaces for dialogue, reflection, and action, demonstrating art’s unique capacity to spark conversation and inspire profound social change.
