Artworks are living objects which emerge from a particular perspective at a particular moment, yet continue to exist in a changing world. Some historic artworks, and even images from popular culture, reflect racist attitudes.


What do we do with imagery like this? Can we seal away the past or should we interrogate it? In short, what can we do with racist art?


In this episode, artist, academic and founder of the groundbreaking BLK Art Group, Keith Piper discusses these questions with artist Larry Achiampong, art historian Nikki Frater PhD, playwright Jacqueline Malcolm and activist Jen Reid.


The Art of Change coincides with Piper’s film installation, Viva Voce, 2024, which examines the racist imagery of a mural painted by Rex Whistler in 1927.


Viva Voce is now open at Tate Britain.

**Please note, this episode refers to artworks that contain racist imagery and language.**


This episode was produced by Adam Simons. The music was by Kieran Shuddall.
