Journalisme intégral et résistance artistique : Quand l’art défie le système

Quand l'art défie le système : le journalisme intégral de Gramsci réinventé ! Les zadistes, chamanes et hackers construisent des récits alternatifs contre le techno-totalitarisme. L'art devient terrain de lutte, transformant la réalité par des interventions poétiques. #Journalisme #Medias #ArtActivism #Communs #ResistanceArtistique #PenséeDuJour La pensée de Gramsci réinventée Antonio…

"I want my art to play a role in lifting people's spirits, in challenging their assumptions, in provoking thought ..... thus promoting dialogue between peoples towards peace.

After winning the #TEDPrize on March 2, 2011, the French #artist JR launched the #InsideOutProject, in his first #TEDTalk. Using his own #artistic practice as inspiration, this participatory platform helps individuals and communities to make a statement by displaying large-scale black and white #portraits in public spaces. Through their “Actions,” communities around the world have sparked #collaborations and conversations.

Over the past decade, more than 500,000 people spanning across 152 countries and territories have participated in the Inside Out Project. Thanks to participants' donations, the project has reached all the continents, with over 2,500 actions created. Actions have revolved around a range of topics: #diversity, #community, #feminism, #racism, #ClimateChange, #education, #ChildrensRights, and #art are just a few of them. Posters are displayed in outdoor spaces that are visible to the public. These #GroupAction #ArtInstallations are documented and shared online.

Second Amendment by Yue Chen.

A striking interpretation of the USA #SecondAmendment by award-winning #ChineseAmerican designer and #ArtDirector at City University of New York, Yue Chen.

Amendment II: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

#Ecology by Ron Chereskin, c. 1973.

Colonial soldiers,
what have they been doing
to my poetry all these years
when I could have easily killed them
in my poems
as they have killed my family
outside poetry?

Poetry was my chance
to settle the score with killers,
but I let them age outdoors,
and I want them to know decay
in their lives, their faces to wrinkle,
their smiles to thin out,
and their weapons to hunch over.
