What is the relationship between art and social value? Robert Teed and Paula Jackson examine the capacity of art as a vehicle for social change, as an advocacy tool for human rights, and in a relational sense as a means of developing the self. Beginning with case studies from the New School House Gallery, the presentation extends to ask how art can engage communities and change societies for the better.
Both speakers are co-founders of the New School House Gallery and Fellows of the RSA; Paula Jackson is Senior Lecturer at York St John University.
