Informed by Suzanne Lacy’s involvement in the Working in Public Seminars (2006-8) organised by On The Edge Research (Gray’s School of Art), and the Scottish Arts Council (Creative Scotland) in partnership with Public Art Research+Resource (PAR+RS) nearly two decades ago, this panel discussion will bring together artists, curators, arts administrators and community members to reflect on the current social and political contexts, the ethical approach and efficacy of social practice in contemporary arts and ask questions on the role of art in civic and political life in times of uncertainties.Confirmed speakers include:
Amanda Catto, Ruth Ewan, Holly Knox Yeoman, and Rumilla Uddin/Community Wellbeing Collective. More speakers to be announced soon.
The Panel Discussion is delivered in collaboration with Scottish Contemporary Art Network (SCAN).
