Acts of Resistance: The Power of Art to Create a Better World | Amber Massie-Blomfield

1 post | 1 read | 1 to read

What is the purpose of art in a world on fire? Can it be a genuine form of political resistance? What is the purpose of art in a world on fire? In this exhilarating and deeply inspiring work, Amber Massie-Blomfield considers the work of artists, writers, musicians, and filmmakers�such as Gran Fury, Billie Holiday, Alexis Wright, Claude Cahun, Rick Lowe, and Joseph Beuys�alongside collectives, communities, and organizations that have used protest sites as their canvas and spearheaded political movements. From writer Ken Saro Wiwa combatting oil pollution in Nigeria and Susan Sontag directing Waiting for Godot in besieged Sarajevo to the women stitching subversive patchworks in Pinochet�s Chile and the artist-activists who blocked the building of a new airport in France, with stories drawn from environmentalism, feminism, anti-fascism, and other movements, Acts of Resistance brings together remarkable acts of creativity that have shifted history on its axis.

Acts of Resistance: The Power of Art to Create a Better World | Amber Massie-Blomfield

Gorgeous mural on the brick walls of a New Haven, CT, Black owned bookstore, Possible Futures. You have to blow up the picture to read about the artist & a dedication- believe me it‘s worth it.My decades long friend & EGHS educator & I go on an annual summertime Indie bookstore discovery. We spent a couple of hours in this bookstore today. #CTIndieBookStoreTrail #BookLoverFriends #resistance
