SUMMARY:Art with an Accent: The Cultural Geography of Creative Expression
LOCATION:University of Nevada\, Reno\, 1664 N. Virginia St.\, Reno\, NV 89
 557
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the Center for Basque Studies and the Department 
 of Sociology and Cultural Analysis\, in collaboration with the University
  of the Basque Country (EHU). All events are free and open to the public.
 \n\nThis conference brings together writers\, scholars and artists to exa
 mine how historically minoritized communities transform identity\, memory
  and cultural sovereignty into creative expression. Focusing on the Basqu
 e experience in comparison with other cultural traditions and histories\,
  it explores literature\, music\, public art\, muralism and the plastic a
 rts as forms of resistance\, placemaking and communal self-representation
 . Drawing on concepts such as borderlands\, translanguaging\, visual sove
 reignty and contact zones\, participants will consider how artistic pract
 ices negotiate suppression\, assimilation\, multilingualism and territori
 al belonging. A Friday 5 p.m. roundtable on murals and social justice wil
 l extend these questions to public art\, community identity and the cultu
 ral meanings of shared space.\n\nConference sessions will be held in MIKC
  203 on Wednesday\, Nov. 4\, at the Rita Laden Senate Chambers (Joe Crowl
 ey) on Thursday\, Nov. 5\, and at MIKC 305 on Friday\, Nov. 6.\n\nhttp://
