An art installation by Chinese artist Ai Weiwei showcases thousands of used life vests by refugees from the Greek island of Lesbos, on February 14, 2016 in Berlin, Germany. The orange vests are wrapped around the pillars of the city’s Konzerthaus to highlight the plight of refugees trying to reach Europe. A Map to You celebrates diversity w/n creativity & art being used as a powerful tool for social commentary. #ArtistsFightback #amaptoyou #aiweiwei

CALLING ALL ARTISTS. DO THIS.

“Calling all artists. The next five years are going to be hard. The conservative government are going to do their best to further dismantle the welfare state and introduce policies that benefit the rich over the rest of us. But while the right-wing media may be excellent at fear-mongering, we’re pretty certain the left have all the good artists. It’s time to prove it.”

Artists Fight Back is project that connects artists and designers with protest organisers: - Artists help the unions/parties/charities/NGOs/demonstrators get their point across. - The unions/parties/charities/NGOs/demonstrators help artists get work and get their work seen. They give this example: “Let’s say the FBU are organising a strike in the light of another fire station being closed down. They’re worried the press will try to turn public opinion against the strike so they’d like a poster or comic that succinctly summarises their grievances and aims of the strike. They’re open to ideas on how that could be done and have a small budget for the artist. They email all this to the email above and we add it to the list of possible jobs in a newsletter. That then gets delivered to all the artists who sign up. Anyone interested in the job can get in touch with the FBU directly via an email address provided.” ... It’s pretty much perfect, right? And to top it off Artists Fight Back recognises that artists should be paid (yes PAID) for their work, although “some artists may be okay with voluntarily work if the campaign/issue is important to them and they have time in their schedule.” So if you’re an organiser who needs an artist but has zero budget or the whole project is volunteer run, you can still use the Artists Fight Back channels to place your job ad.  SO: - If you’re an artist who wants to be involved in helping fight back, you just sign up to receive emails containing job ads. - If you’re a party/union/charity/NGO/protest group/demo/organisation/etc that’s in need of a design/illustrations/logos/any artwork at all - email them at [email protected] with the full brief, deadline, and if you have a budget available.
