On June 20th, take part in the online masterclass "The Art of Liberation”, led by Dread Scott.
In this masterclass, Dread Scott will revisit two of his artistic projects, deconstructing creative processes and giving a behind-the-scenes view. Slave Rebellion Reenactment was a community performance with 350 participants, centered on freedom and emancipation. It reinterpreted history to challenge the perception of people of African descent, not as “slaves”, but as enslaved people who, at the time, held one of the most radical visions of freedom. Passes analyzes the intersection between France's role in the slave trade and contemporary migration from Africa to Europe.
This session will be held in English and is free. Sign up at gerador.eu/en/leap
This initiative is part of LEAP - Legacy in Progress, a project co-funded by the European Commission that seeks to stimulate a broad reflection on the historical truth surrounding colonial legacies.
