WHAT IS THE ROLE OF THE ARTIST IN THE REVOLUTION?

Liv Wynter (How To Catch a Pig, Bands Boycott Barclays), an artist deeply committed to political activism and the fight against any systemic oppressions, instigates this conversation with Dj Saya and Luca Argel to explore how musicians and artists make revolution by challenging neo-liberal organizational models. The conversation addresses strategies such as boycotts, alternative payment structures or the creation of cooperative venues to analyze the future of DIY culture as a form of resistance. The BDS (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions) movement is analyzed as inspiration for cultural actions that oppose oppressive systems. The conversation naturally extends to the role of art in the anti-war movement, highlighting the potential of culture in calling for collective action for a more just and equitable future.
