Chicago artist Kareem Khubchandani reflects on the value of collaborating with fellow South Asian artists and his new work for SAPAC's Voices of Resistance 10: REVISION, an annual exhibition of politically conscious visual and performing arts.
Voices of Resistance (VOR) features performance and visual art dedicated to social justice and the illumination of progressive artistic perspectives on South Asian issues. As we approach the 10th anniversary of 9/11, this 10th annual VOR reflects on an event that drastically impacted the South Asian community and was the impetus for the creation of VOR.
The program highlights original work by Chicago-based performance and visual artists. The works, developed over a 3-month period of artist workshops and dialogues, address a range of issues including nationalism and belonging in America, conflict in South Asia, Islamaphobia/xenophobia in the United States, and personal hopes for creating a more just and accepting society.
Join us for the opening of the Voices of Resistance 10: REVISION exhibit on September 30, 2011 and our performance night on October 15, 2011! Details at http://www.sapac.org
