Science + Art Saturday: Art + Protest

"Art + Protest"

The visual arts have played a vital role in movements for social change. Using examples from the Maier’s collection and beyond, we will investigate ways art is used as a tool for resistance. Then we will create protest art using the “photomontage” technique, a collage style invented by Dada artists of the early 20th century.
