The paths of artivism three moments of social action through art, its achievements in the community and its pedagogical scope

Abstract

This is an analysis of three models of social action demanding social justice and promoting necessary and urgent social and essential changes through artistic practices that are framed in the concept of artivism. Therefore, the term itself and the movement are contextualized from various points of view, mainly educational, but also curatorial and the receiver of these events. In addition, the current technological context is taken into account as an element of analysis both from artivism and from the educational field to delimit its influence in all these aspects. The proposal does not intend to cover all the types that could exist, since one of the characteristics of artivism is its heterogeneity, transversality and breadth. It is rather a description of some of these practices in order to reflect on those that go further in their objectives, being all equally necessary and opportune and without any excluding the other. In this process, the relationship of cultural events with the market is investigated as the predominant cultural form today and how these practices interact with this cultural-commercial framework. From this perspective, it is studied what space and role these artistic actions have in education and in artistic education and what role the teacher plays.
