The Streisand Effect

  • This is a past program

What happens when artists lose control of the narrative of their work, when ideas are misappropriated and instrumentalized by others with differing agendas? A panel including Made in L.A. 2016 artist Dena Yago, her frequent collaborator Sean Monahan, and Rachel Berks of Otherwild Goods and Services addresses the implications of these questions amid the ever-expanding role and function of today’s creative industries and the blurring of lines between art and commerce.

All Hammer public programs are free and made possible by a major gift from an anonymous donor.

Generous support is also provided by Susan Bay Nimoy and Leonard Nimoy, Good Works Foundation and Laura Donnelley, an anonymous donor, The Samuel Goldwyn Foundation, and all Hammer members.

The Hammer’s digital presentation of its public programs is made possible by the Billy and Audrey L. Wilder Foundation.
