intervention art

Intervention art refers to artistic practices that actively engage in social or political issues, often by creating temporary installations or performances in public spaces. Artists use this approach to challenge norms, provoke thought, or inspire change by directly interacting with the audience and environment. Unlike traditional art displayed in galleries, intervention art seeks to disrupt or comment on existing contexts, making art accessible and relevant to everyday life. It can take many forms, including murals, street performances, or community projects, aiming to foster dialogue and reflection on critical topics such as identity, environment, or community issues.
