Summary

Through the perspectives of international artists working across mediums, Stories of Resistance sheds light on the situations from which acts of resistance emerge and identifies themes and motifs that recur across history, cultures and regions. Resistance may be found in the rewriting of history, exposing or filling in the blatant absences of the dominant narrative; resistance emerges from within governmental, corporate or institutional structures and systems of power; resistance takes shape in labor movements and in actions to protect water, land and other natural resources. Exhibition: Contemporary Art Museum, St. Louis, USA (12.03-15.08.2021).
