Book Launch of Seeing Power: Art and Activism in the 21st Century - A talk by Nato Thompson followed by a conversation with Gregory Sholette
Einstein Auditorium
New York, NY
Share this event:


Nato Thompson, Chief Curator at Creative Time, and Gregory Sholette, artist, scholar, organizer, and professor, sit down to discuss Thompson's new book Seeing Power: Art and Activism in the 21st Century.

"A fog of information and images has flooded the world: from advertising, television, radio, and film to the information glut produced by the new economy. With the rise of social networking, even our contemporaries, peers, and friends are all suddenly selling us the ultimate product: themselves.

In Seeing Power, Nato Thompson interrogates the implications of these developments for those dedicated to socially engaged art and activism. How can anyone find a voice and make change when the world is flooded with images and information? And what is one to make of the endless machine of consumer capitalism, which has appropriated much from the history of art and, in recent years, the methods of grassroots political organizing and social networking?"
