School A Recent History of Self-organized Art Education

Artist collective Gulf Cooperation Council has been making work both inspired by and addressing the contemporary culture of the Arab Gulf region. Rooted in the legacy of identity politics, artist members discuss engaging new ways of relating to late-capitalist consumer visuals like advertising, image sharing and global Whatsapp conversations. Trained in architecture, design, music and art, the collective embraces an interdisciplinary way of working to produce their tongue-in-cheek critiques.
