Memory, Resistance & Transnational Solidarity: From 2012 to the Present and Beyond
The Center for Armenian Arts is proud to host Memory, Resistance & Transnational Solidarity: From 2012 to the Present and Beyond, a two-day international seminar bringing together scholars, legal experts, artists, curators, and human rights advocates to examine the power of memory, education, art, and collective action in confronting historical injustice.
Through keynote presentations, panel discussions, and audience conversations, participants will explore topics including historical denial, comparative justice, human rights advocacy, memorialization, freedom of expression, and the role of museums, exhibitions, and public art in preserving historical memory. The program features distinguished speakers from leading academic, legal, and cultural institutions who will share their research and experiences in advancing justice and fostering transnational solidarity.
The seminar also includes the opening of the ReflectSpace exhibition, offering attendees an opportunity to engage with powerful visual narratives that commemorate survivors and promote dialogue across communities.
Whether you are a student, educator, researcher, artist, or community member, this event offers a unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of historical memory, connect with experts from diverse fields, and participate in meaningful conversations about justice, remembrance, and international solidarity.
