Critical Perspectives: The Role of the Visual Artist

What is the role of the visual artist in the struggle and how is it judged as "art"? Gavin Jantjes discusses how visual art should challenge the interiorisation of Western artistic evaluation (and its pressures on artistic quality) and rather appeal to instill in ones own community a meaningful interest in both their culture and art. He regards black artists as being sidelined on the global stage and urges artists to fight racism and eurocentricism in art.
