Marcelo Brodsky - 1968: The Fire of Ideas

Past event at Street Level Photoworks

Sat 10 Feb

Entry from free

Marcelo Brodsky is an Argentinian artist and human rights activist, working with images and documents of specific events to investigate broader social, political and historical issues. In 1968: the Fire of Ideas, Brodsky features archival images of student and worker demonstrations around the world, carefully annotated by hand in order to deconstruct what lay behind worldwide social turbulence in the late 1960s. Images of anti-Vietnam war demonstrations in London and Tokyo sit alongside protests in Bogota, Rio de Janeiro, Mexico, Prague and San Paolo against military regimes and oppressive government structures.
