Featuring works by more than twenty international artists installed across hallways, classrooms, and public spaces throughout the Teachers College campus, Unleashing explored the concept of “social imagination” developed by philosopher Maxine Greene. Through multimedia installations and public programming, the project invited artists to respond to the architecture, history, and everyday life of the campus, positioning artistic research as a form of knowledge production that reimagines education, social justice, and collective futures.
