More than half the world's population is voting in elections this year. Dash Arts dives into one of those elections, speaking to artists in Georgia about how they are responding to the political turmoil in their country. The ruling party, Georgian Dream, is fighting for an unprecedented fourth term at the end of October 2024 and continues to be accused of silencing free speech, taking control of arts and culture and using fear to intimidate any criticism.
As part of Dash Arts’ exploration into protest and the public voice, Josephine Burton speaks to three Georgian artist activists who are uniting artists from across the sector, shouting for democracy and pushing for change.
In this episode you will hear from:
Josephine Burton - Artistic Director, Dash Arts
Thomas De Waal - Journalist, author & specialist in Eastern Europe and the Caucasus region
Ana Riaboshenko - Artist & one of the Initiators of Culture for Democracy
Paata Tsikolia - Theatre Director and Playwright
