Featured Speakers: Fred Moten (keynote), Ingrid Monson, Benjamin Piekut, Fumi Okiji, Adam Zanolini
The history of black improvised music brims with parables of resistance. Time and time again, in the face of oppression, artists and improvisers have raised their voices in sonorous defiance. What does this legacy mean in 2017, as artists and citizens face new incarnations of old demons?
On June 1, the Vision Festival, in collaboration with Columbia University and the University of Pittsburgh, will convene its second one-day symposium of scholars and artists to address these and related issues. Central themes will include:
● The role of radical art in resistance movements
● Musical resonances of Black Lives Matter
● Improvised music's long tradition of protest
● International networks of artistic activism
This conference is free and open to the public. Breakfast and lunch will be provided.
