ART OF RESISTANCE - A Live In-Person Talk at San Francisco's YBCA.
Iranian Diasporic Perspectives on Revolutionary Creativity
Shiva Ahmadi | Ala Ebtekar | Talinn Grigor | Taraneh Hemami
Join us for an inspiring and thought-provoking panel discussion exploring the intersection of art, activism, and cultural identity through the lens of revolutionary creativity. Acclaimed Iranian artists Shiva Ahmadi, Ala Ebtekar, and Taraneh Hemami, renowned art historian Talinn Grigor, and curator Amy Kisch will come together to discuss how art can serve as a powerful tool for resistance, transformation, and dialogue.
Through their distinct practices and perspectives, the panelists will examine how their work responds to and reflects the socio-political landscapes of their time, both in Iran and in the diaspora. This conversation will delve into the ways revolutionary art not only critiques the status quo but also envisions alternative futures, fostering resilience and hope in the face of adversity.
This event is moderated by exhibition curator Amy Kisch
