What meaning and influence has music had in the past?
How can art in general be used to express a stance on certain societal events and situations?
How does music education help us better understand the meaning of political engagement?
How can different artistic expressions be used to be civically active and to show a stance on certain political events?
About the concept: Over three days, teams of four high school students will go through a learning process on the influence of art through five music genres and movements: rock and hippie movement, punk, rap and hip hop, grunge; electronic music. The space will be divided into four different stations where 40 high school students from 10 different schools in Macedonia will work and research with their mentors in parallel. The practical and theoretical knowledge and skills from each station will be transformed into final pieces that will be publicly exhibited at Brutalis on June 2, 2024 (Sunday).
