Tactical Media

How do you intervene in fast-paced media narratives by engaging art and design? What does it look like to subvert hyperstimulation towards a political means? Inspired by Creative Time’s powerful and iconic public media campaigns that served as direct provocations, including “Kissing Doesn‘t Kill”, “Not Just the Parade, Time to Get Paid”, “Visualize This,” and the PSA, “Most Exciting Women in Music”, this event brings together artists and organizers Viva Ruiz and Gregory Sholette to reflect on their work spanning multiple contexts and social frameworks. They will share their experiences with artist interventions in media making, and how these forms of messaging can provoke public conversation on socio-political issues. The conversation will be followed by an interactive poster swap - bring a poster from your own collection, or choose from a selection of reproductions of past Creative Time poster works, to swap out for posters laid out across the tables in CTHQ.
