Mission Statement
Sunday, March 13, 2011 at 9:33PM The Radical Art Caucus (RAC) has as its primary mission the promotion of art and art historical scholarship that addresses historical and contemporary problems of oppression and possibilities for resistance. RAC brings together scholars and artists who ground their work in the material knowledge of cultural conditions and practices related to critiquing fundamental issues of unequal distribution of resources, social hierarchies, and unjust political authority which affect disenfranchised populations in all periods of history.
Furthermore, RAC seeks to provide an intellectual and professional environment for the discussion of labor and social justice issues specifically related to contemporary practices of art and art history. RAC members will debate and advocate for a more critical institutional practice in order to promote radical democratic principles within and outside the academy.
