Episode 60: Miguel Luciano Discusses Fall of Freedom

Miguel Luciano discusses the upcoming Fall of Freedom movement, happening November 21 and 22, 2025. Fall of Freedom is an urgent call to the arts community to unite in defiance of authoritarian forces sweeping the nation. Our Democracy is under attack. Threats to free expression are rising. Dissent is being criminalized. Institutions and media have been recast as mouthpieces of propaganda. November 21–22, 2025, galleries, museums, libraries, comedy clubs, theaters, and concert halls across the country will host exhibitions, performances, and public events that channel the urgency of this moment. There is still time to participate. Miguel Luciano is a multimedia visual artist whose work explores themes of history, popular culture and social justice through painting, sculpture, and socially engaged public art projects that are featured in the permanent collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art, National Gallery of Art, The Smithsonian American Art Museum, National Portrait Gallery, National Museum of African American History and Culture, The Brooklyn Museum, El Museo del Barrio, and the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico. He lives and works in New York and is currently a faculty member at the School of Visual Arts and Yale University School of Art.https://www.falloffreedom.com/https://miguelluciano.com/
