Back Off!: Dissident Representations in Art and Social Movements
April 03, 2009
Back Off! is a day of conferences and workshops organized to draw attention to political art being produced in Montreal and to understand how social movements use art to transmit their messages. The 2009 edition wishes to bring together people coming from different artistic milieus, having a common interest for various forms of activistic creation, and to create a meeting place for various actors of social movements who identify as feminists or who use a feminist analysis in their approaches. The goal is to bridge the gap between the academic and grassroots communities of Montreal, anglophone and francophone.
Time: 12:30pm to 9pm
Venue: backoff.info@gmail.com
Location: The CEDA, 2515 Delisle street, near Lionel-Groulx metro Montreal, QC
