Think about and analyze the ways in which art is used as a way to raise awareness of an particular issue as discussed in the following four pages of this module, which describe four different ways in which art is used as a form of activism.

Step 1. Think about and analyze the ways in which art is used as a way to raise awareness of an particular issue as discussed in the following four pages of this module, which describe four different ways in which art is used as a form of activism.

Creating Art as a Form of Activism

Removing Art as a Form of Activism

Vandalizing Art as a Form of Activism

Re-evaluating & Revising Art as a Form of Activism

Step 2. For each module topic page (i.e. use of art as a form of activism), compose an analysis that responds to the following questions:

• How art is treated in each discussion (i.e. each module page)? Is it created? Removed? Vandalized? Modified? Be specific.
• What is the rationale for the treatment? WHY has the work been created / removed / vandalized / modified?
  • For the two examples of creating/modifying art: What is the artist trying to accomplish by creating or modifying art?
  • For the examples of removing/vandalizing art: what are the individuals involved trying to accomplish by their actions?
• Of the four approaches discussed in this module on these pages, which do you think is the most effective in raising awareness of the particular issue?
