2008 National Conference
March 13-16, 2008 in Denver, Colorado.

“AGENTS OF CHANGE: ART AND ADVOCACY”
the 45th annual conference

... Lens-based artists have been catalysts for change with imagery that advocates social and environmental awareness. Artists bear witness, interpret, expose and address problems ranging from the Aids epidemic and stereotypes in race and gender to the plight of refugees in war torn countries. In what ways are artists responding to the local and global challenges that are reshaping politics, cultures, economies and the planet? As educators, artists and scholars, what has been the historical impact of our advocacy? What role will we play in shaping the future?...
Joann Brennan
Conference Chair
