Rightly involved in a project to put Art at the service of a cause, “Artivism, the power of artistic languages for political communication and activism”, by Antoni Gutiérrez Rubí, falls into our hands, which perhaps does not seem to have much to see, but that also speaks of similarity: transmitting the need for specific policies, in our case policies for the protection and recovery of flora, through art. (available now only in spanish)
According to its author, “Artivism is a hybrid practice that combines the artistic approach, based on the aesthetic process, with the instrumental approach that seeks a result that is typical of activism.”
“Artivism can be extraordinarily effective in reconnecting citizens with politics”
