Presentation
What are the spaces and conditions of artistic creation in exile? How is artivism to be understood in relation to migration? How can art "demonstrate" injustice and violence? What injunctions lie behind the figure of the "artist in exile"- By critically questioning the relationship between art, justice and migration, this symposium proposes a multidisciplinary reflection around three themes: firstly, the role of cultural structures in welcoming artists in danger, during and after the emergencies that force them to leave. Secondly, mobilization and resistance through art, which raises the question of the link between aesthetics and politics. Finally, the way in which new creative processes can bear witness to forms of injustice.Program
