SUMMARY:Nomusa Makhubu: "Your Heart on Your Sleeve: Live Art\, Entrapment a
 nd Civic Freedom"
DESCRIPTION:Reflecting on current realities of shrinking civic freedoms\, p
 olitical aggression and vulnerable democracies\, this lecture focusses on 
 the live art archive and Live Art Network Africa (LANA) under the stewards
 hip of the Institute for Creative Arts in Cape Town. It offers analyses of
  specific multi-sited interventions that address the reproduction of socio
 -spatial entrapment\, which is defined herein as the compounded effect of 
 persistent territorialism and accumulation\, epistemicide and cultural era
 sure\, as well as economic and political despair that keeps injustice recu
 rsive. Although the archive is constituted of live art realised in the cit
 y of Cape Town\, this lecture reflects on the mobility politics emerging i
 n the artistic interventions by artists across the African continent in re
 lation to different forms of entrapment and the pursuit of civic freedom.\
 \r\\nProf Nomusa Makhubu is professor in Art History at the University of 
 Cape Town. She is both an art historian and an artist. Her research focus 
 is on African popular culture\, photography\, interventionism\, live art a
 nd socially-engaged art. With her work she won numerous awards both in the
  academic sphere and the arts. Makhubu is the founder of Creative Knowledg
 e Resources (CKR) – an open access platform for social justice arts. She
  has co-curated exhibitions (including a co-curation of the South African 
 Pavilion at the Venice Biennale in Italy)\, and has published Creative Boo
 ks and research papers in peer-reviewed international journals and book vo
 lumes.
