Power Up!
Corita Kent was a radical educator, silkscreen printing pop artist, and
activist agitator whose pedagogical and political exuberance extended to
Civil Rights, war resistance, feminist critique, and a joyful
participatory body politic. She was the head of the art department at
the Immaculate Heart College in Los Angeles in the 1960s, and drew free
thinkers such as Charles and Ray Eames, Buckminster Fuller, and John
Cage to visit her school. Her impact on her students is far-reaching and
her work continues to motivate new generations of socially-engaged
makers and doers.
