In order to understand how artists and human rights defenders from across Latin America and the Caribbean have been affected by these concerning developments – and the steps they are taking to protect themselves and sustain their creative expression – ARC, in partnership with Amnesty International and Labo Ciudadano, has released a new report on artistic freedom in the region: Art in Turmoil: Artistic Freedom and Human Rights in Latin America and the Caribbean. The report presents the discussion and key findings from a closed virtual workshop convened in March 2022 which gathered 31 artists, human rights defenders, and cultural practitioners from 10 countries in the region.
