In Search of Our Times: Fact and Fiction: Art, News, and Propaganda
A virtual discussion about art and propaganda, in partnership with the Pacific Council on International Policy.
“Fake news” and “alternative facts” have become buzzwords of our time. After the twentieth-century struggles between top-down media propaganda and bottom-up media exposures, we acquired unprecedented access to information. Nevertheless, it has become increasingly difficult to separate fact from interpretation. In our current moment, how do we remain (self-)critical in a world of politically split realities? What can art teach us about fact and fiction?
This event is presented as part of Wende Conversations: A Discussion Series Supported by Susan Horowitz and Rick Feldman.
