Art as a Weapon There is a particularly cynical groan that comes out of a critic’s voice when the term politics is paired with art or music, especially when the politics in question is current. When politics is buried beneath layers of conceptual academic skulduggery it is much easier to swallow.

La gestuelle en image dans le mouvement « Occupy » ! qui continue encore aujourd’hui se réunit fréquemment sous forme d’Assemblée générale citoyenne et, afin de transmettre ce que chacun pense de ce qui est dit, un langage a été conçu. Les gens présents utilisent ainsi des gestes et des signaux en utilisant leurs mains, leurs bras.
