Currently, what is included under the umbrella of \u201ccontemporary culture\u201d can depend on those in political power, and the media may also deliberately or inadvertently influence this. In this circumstance, mainstream channels of communication distribute a relatively narrow cultural viewpoint, creating a closed circuit of information. Culture, then, becomes a means-to-an-end in the sense that it is molded to fit with the dominant power. What is discussed is only that which supports and coincides with the dominant vision of what culture should be.<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Therefore, we have created this space: an open archive, freely accessible and without charge, updating and expanding continuously. It is multifaceted in concept. It is a worldwide, interdisciplinary (artists, students, educators, researchers, etc.) network for communication. This blog brings together the work of many kinds of artists (authors, filmmakers, cartoonists, essayists, photographers, etc.) who use a variety of mediums to explore different perspectives that are not usually represented.<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Since it is a free, public resource, those who enter this space must display ethical and civil manners. Anyone interested in contributing to or more actively collaborating on this project should email the blog administrator at the following address: <a href=\"mailto:artivistas21@gmail.com\">artivistas21@gmail.com<\/a>. We hope this blog will become a space for imaginative alternatives, as well as to further develop the idea that through discussion of and education about culture, society can be transformed in a positive way.<\/h5>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center;\">***This project is always under construction thanks to the collaboration between Professor Palmar Alvarez-Blanco and her students: Anthony Harb, Jordyn Adeboye, Lindsay Szper, Abraham Villarreal, Camille Braun, Lauren Kempton, Christina Tarazi and those next to come&#8230;<\/h6>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0\u00a0Artivismo en el siglo XXI.
