THE POLITICS OF ART - Artist Joaquin Segura

"Why Mexican artist Joaquin Segura doesn’t think politics solves problems" PBS NewsHour 9/5/2019

Excerpt

SUMMARY:  Modern Mexico faced profound change 100 years ago, when revolution toppled a dictatorship, and the country has remained in a state of political evolution ever since.  Mexico City native Joaquin Segura draws inspiration from the growing pains of the region around him, weaving powerful social commentary into his contemporary art.  NPR correspondent Lulu Garcia Navarro has Segura’s story.
