THE PROTEST AND THE RECUPERATION | PREVIEW
FEBRUARY 10 – APRIL 4, 2021; IN THE WINDOWS OF THE FORUM
West 125th St. & Broadway
-
Over the last decade, Chile has experienced a succession of popular uprisings, including the 2011 student protests, the Tsunami feminista in 2018, and ongoing national demonstrations under the banner of Chile Despertó. In this social climate, a number of artistic and activist collectives and performance street groups have emerged throughout the country. Using dance, theater, performance, and music as their political weapons, these collectives are flooding the streets of Chile to denounce systemic cases of governamental violence and existing patriarchal, colonialist and neoliberal structures. This panel will examine the emergence of these collectives and how they are developing a lively and impassioned protest aesthetic as part of their artistic and activist practices.
