Alongside Canadian Art editor Merray Gerges, art critic and activist Aruna D’Souza will discuss her recent book Whitewalling: Art, Race and Protest in Three Acts (2018) and the reparative potential of art criticism. The conversation will be an opportunity for interdisciplinary dialogue about the intersections between art, arts institutions, technology, and politics. D’Souza and Gerges will discuss how they address structural racism, diversity and inclusion in their own practices and, in particular, how they have mobilized digital and social media platforms for serious criticism and scholarly debate.
