artist collectives

Artist collectives are groups of artists who come together to collaborate, support each other, and share resources. They often aim to create work that reflects shared values or addresses specific social issues. By pooling their skills and ideas, they can undertake larger projects, host exhibitions, or promote their work more effectively than individuals might. Collectives foster a sense of community and can empower artists, providing a platform for diverse voices and innovative approaches to art. Examples include movements like Fluxus and groups like the Guerrilla Girls, which challenge traditional art norms and promote social change through creativity.
