Contemporary art as a form of protest revolutionized the art world. The boundaries of how art was defined were pushed beyond something only the « elite » could appreciate, and allowed the masses full access. The Protest Panel is an exploration of how protest and politically engaged work plays a significant role in contemporary art.The panellists will examine how artists and curators use contemporary art as a platform to raise awareness, to make a statement, to tell cultural, social and political stories
