The White Pube: Ideas for a New Art World
Friday, March 26, 2021
12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EDT/GMT-4 Online Event
Zarina Muhammad from the influential UK-based art criticism collective, The White Pube, is the guest in OSUN's Center for Human Rights and the Arts' second public talk.
The White Pube is a collaboration between Muhammad and Gabrielle de la Puente, born out of the need for art writing that goes beyond the “just bad chat by middle class white men.” They use social media, audio recording, unconventional punctuation, billboards in the public space, and a practice of embodied criticism.
The ~cultural sector~ has been resistant to change; it has held on to antiquated balances of power like no other area of society, and that rigidity has affected the way we distribute resources amongst ourselves within the creative industry. We have got to radically restructure the way we do things. If we had the chance to terraform the arts landscape we’ve got, and become more expansive in what we do, where would we start? How do you go about making an industry that’s sustainable, accessible, genuinely diverse, and fundamentally joyful?
