The Art of Preservation: Engaging and Amplifying Underrepresented Heritage

Join us for the 2021 Fitch Colloquium Friday, February 19, 2021 from 12:00pm-5:15pm (EST).
 
Artists are leading a broad rethinking of heritage, and claiming a central role within preservation practice. In recent years, many BIPOC artists have worked with built heritage to take up the legacies of racial inequities and historical injustices as central themes in their work. Artists confront, challenge, or reframe the role of heritage in society. What will the future of preservation look like as art becomes more central in the profession?

This symposium convenes BIPOC artists who integrate heritage – and all its sociopolitical implications today – into their works and explores the intersection between art and preservation.
