2014 SculptureX Symposium #5

Columbus College of Art and Design

SCULPTUREX 2014: THE SOCIAL POLITICAL OBJECT examined the social and cultural activism carried out through the mechanisms of art and culture.

Hosted by Columbus College of Art & Design on Saturday, Oct. 11, The Social Political Object presented artwork and research that explore designation, the object, and the system an object is held within. Artists, academics, community members, and cultural practitioners came together for discussions intended to illuminate both historical work and current activity. Keynote speaker Sharon Hayes is an internationally renowned artist whose work looks at gender by demonstrating how historical gender affiliations have embedded themselves in our collective memory and are played out in current political situations. Her work has been shown in museums, galleries, and performance spaces around the world, including the New Museum, the Tate Modern in London, Museum Moderner Kunst in Vienna, and the Deutsche Guggenheim in Berlin.
