House of Books and Friends is bringing back their 'Lunchtime Lecture' series, and are excited to welcome Professor John Byrne to discuss his book 'Useful Art: How Activist Artists Can Change the World.' The talk will begin at 1pm and last for 1 hour.
Tickets available via the link in our bio 🎟️
Does art have to be beautiful? What if it can be useful instead? In this cutting-edge book, John Byrne shows how the concept of 'Useful Art' is helping artists and communities fight back against the neoliberal takeover of our spaces, services and lives.
