Artivism: A Crossroads of Creativity Between Art, Education, and Social Work

Abstract

This research, which explores the Spanish artistic context, aims to analyse the relationship between the arts and the context from which they are created. To understand the variables that describe this relationship, a work plan was established between the Faculty of Education of the Complutense University, in collaboration with the National University of Distance Education in Spain. The research sought to understand the perspective of Spanish artivists who use art and activism to promote social or political change. The results found the existence of a symbiotic relationship between the arts and social education and the impact of artivism in social projects.
