Exhibition making as Activism – Whose Politics?

Taking place during the Frieze Art Fair, Frieze Talks was a daily programme of keynote lectures, panel debates and discussions presented by Frieze Foundation and programmed by the editors of frieze magazine.

Exhibition making as Activism – Whose Politics?

12pm, Sunday 17 October

A myriad of approaches are taken by artists, writers and curators whose work responds to complex social issues and political situations. To what extent do the political and personal intersect? Can art be effective activism and vice versa?

* Emily Roysdon (Artist and Writer, USA)
* Chair: Negar Azimi (Senior Editor, Bidoun magazine)
