This beginners’ level course examines the relationship between contemporary visual art and politics. A key question throughout the course is how does contemporary visual art respond to international socio-political frameworks and debates? The course will look at both artists that directly address politics in their work and the circulation of contemporary visual art inside and outside of the established art world.
Led by Dr Joseph McGonagle, Lecturer in Cultural Studies in the French-speaking World at The University of Manchester and Sarah Perks, Cornerhouse Programme & Engagement Director.
