Transnational Resistances
About the event
Join us for a two-day symposium rooted in artistic practices of transnational resistance and solidarity
We are living in a time of war, forced displacement, widening inequality, rising authoritarianism and ecological breakdown. These overlapping crises expose profound inequalities in whose lives are protected, whose histories are remembered, and whose rights are recognised today.The Symposium brings together the practices of artists and academics working with communities in resisting erasure and challenging entrenched systems of power. We will explore the building of support networks and grassroot institutions, use of feminist methodologies, memory work and counter-archiving practices, and the preservation and transmission of embodied knowledges across generations.Developed in partnership with MATHAF: Arab Museum of Modern Art and IMMA (Irish Museum of Modern Art), the symposium brings into dialogue regions shaped by distinct yet intersecting histories of British colonialism and military intervention. Through critical exchange, it foregrounds opportunities for shared learning, fostering enduring forms of solidarity and resistance across borders.Full schedule and booking information coming soon.Organised by Hyundai Tate Research Centre: Transnational in partnership with Hyundai Motor. In partnership with IMMA (Irish Museum of Modern Art) and MATHAF: Arab Museum of Modern Art.
