The Axis of Good Living in Fine Arts, Caracas, will host a discussion this Friday, November 6, in homage to educator and researcher Luis Antonio Bigott, as part of the activities for the 88th anniversary of his birth.
The meeting, entitled “Luis Bigott in the candle: educator, researcher, militant agitator”, is scheduled for 9:00 in the morning in the Pergola and will feature presentations by Aracelis García, Maury Márquez, Wilmer López and Luisana Colomine Rincones.
The conference is organized by the Luis Antonio Bigott International Center for Decolonization Studies and the Red Art Foundation, both attached to the Ministry of Popular Power for Culture, together with Corazón Artesano.
Bigott was born on November 7, 1938 in Tucupita, Delta Amacuro state. He taught at the Central University of Venezuela (UCV) and the University of Zulia (LUZ), in addition to serving as academic vice-rector of the Bolivarian University of Venezuela (UBV).
In addition, his academic and cultural work was linked to popular education, research and the decolonization of culture, with special attention to the recognition of the artisan as a subject of social transformation.
