The Creative Time Summit

Audiences are invited to engage with some of the international artists behind projects in the Living as Form archive—as well as critics, writers, and curators—at the third annual Creative Time Summit: Living as Form, which kicks off the exhibition's opening weekend on September 23, at NYU’s Skirball Center. The conference brings together an evolving community concerned with the political implications of socially engaged art to discuss how their work addresses pressing issues affecting our world. Expected presenters include: Alternate ROOTS, Appalshop, Common Room, Cybermohalla Ensemble, Decolonizing Architecture, Jeremy Deller, Darren O’Donnell, Laura Flanders, Theaster Gates, Hou Hanru, Jeanne van Heeswijk, Shannon Jackson, Long March Project, Alan W. Moore, My Barbarian, NSK (Neue Slowenische Kunst), Ted Purves, Gerald Raunig, Navin Rawanchaikul, Katerina Šedá, Chemi Rosado Seijo, Andreas Siekmann, Mierle Laderman Ukeles, Ultra-red, United Indian Health Services, Urban Bush Women, Voina, Dan S. Wang, WochenKlausur, and Women on Waves.

The Leonore Annenberg Prize for Art and Social Change is an annual, $25,000 award, generously supported by the Annenberg Foundation and presented by Creative Time each year at the Summit. The prize honors an artist who has committed his or her life’s work to promoting social justice through the arts.
