Change Agents: Personal Art as Political Tactic
Reception: Friday, March 25, 5-7pm Gallery Talk: Saturday, March 26, 10 am What does it mean to be engaged, active, and awake to the world around you? Artists in Change Agents: Personal Art as Political Tactic address pressing social and political issues including racism, gender discrimination, environmental crisis, cultural tradition, media stereotypes, and other concerns through the lens of their own experiences. The political is not always what you would expect within the work, there are voices of critique, uncertainty, humor, and hope. Change Agents: Personal Art as Political Tactic was developed by a team of PEA student curators as a way to extend conversations on identity, social constructions, and political convictions, and to activate the gallery as a space for discussion and reflection. Participating artists include: June August (NH), ResaBlatman (MA), Regina Carter (NH), Donna Catanzaro (NH), Furen Dai (MA), Evelyn Davis-Walker (OH), Lawrence Elbroch (ME), Caitlin Foley &MishaRabinovich (MA), Raquel Fornasaro (MA), Keith Frances (MA), Brian Gaither (PA), Sara Gallo (PA), Shawna Gibbs (NH), Adric Giles (MA), Lauren Gillette (ME), Lance Johnson (NY), TanaKellner&Ann Kalmbach (NY), Kalen Lister ?00 (NY), George Lorio (DE), Katrina Majkut (NY), TomasoMarcolla (Italy), Cora Marshall (FL), Josh Mintz (LA), James Montford (RI), Carl Moore (TN), Zachary Naylor (CT), Kristen Nowlin (KS), David Phoenix (MA),IlaProuty (NC), Simone Spruce-Torres (RI), Jean Tansey (NH), Sarah Washburn (MA), Charter Weeks (NH), Andrew Wilson (CA), Jave Yoshimoto (NE), Andrea Zampitella (MA), Jane Zich (CA)
