Riverside ArtsWalk Event. Panel Discussion. Using the art of Gabriela León as a starting point, UCR Sweeney Art Gallery presents a panel discussion that will investigate the ideas of how art works in public spaces, how it has been utilized as a mode of social protest, and how vernacular forms of expression have been incorporated into public demonstrations through artistic intervention.
