In conjunction with the exhibition Stockyard Institute: 25 Years of Art and Radical Pedagogy, DePaul Art Museum presents the panel “Museum Subjectivities.” Breaking the fiction of art’s autonomy, protected traditionally by museum walls, these efforts also involve amplifying subjective and communal experiences beyond traditional art institutions. Museum professionals from different Latin American institutions in Chile, Paraguay, Argentina, and Colombia, speak about long-term relationships that open up ways for subjective and collective transformation.

Panelists:

Ticio Escobar, Museo del Barro, Asunción, Paraguay. Soledad García Saavedra, Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez; Universidad de Chile; Museo Solidaridad Allende, Santiago de Chile, Chile. William Alfonso López Rosas, Universidad Nacional de Colombia; Alianza Colombiana de Museos, Bogotá, Colombia. Johanna Palmeyro, Movimiento Justicia Museal; Museo Casa de Ricardo Rojas, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Moderator:

Eva Marxen, School of the Art Institute of Chicago; Research Network Museum Solidarity Salvador Allende.

The event is online and in Spanish with simultaneous translation into English by Alejo Magariños.
