| Ala Hehe Hulu Kupuna by Makaiwa Kanui is on display in the exhibition called Art & Anarchy at Volcano Art Center Niaulani Campus through Oct. 1. |
ART & ANARCHY 2021 IS ON DISPLAY AT VOLCANO ART CENTER through Oct. 1. The Exhibition is sponsored by University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo Departments of Philosophy and Art in conjunction with the Pacific Association for the Continental Tradition philosophy conference focusing on the
theme of Anarchy.
The show opened on Sept. 11 and may be viewed in person Wednesdays – Sundays, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. at Volcano Art Center’s Niaulani Campus, located at 19-4074 Old Volcano Rd.
The three-week event features invited artists from the U.S. mainland and Hawaiʻi Island, who were asked to submit works of art which
engage the theme of anarchy.
Since its origins in 19th century Paris, anarchism has influenced the visual arts in diverse ways and continues to do so as demonstrated by this collection of one-of-a-kind works which provide visual
and intellectual stimulation on
the subject.
Tim Freeman, Teacher of Philosophy at UH Hilo, said, “Anarchism, as a philosophy and political movement developing in Paris in the mid 19th century, was never really advocating a descent into disorder and chaos, but rather the liberation of humanity from the oppressive order imposed by religion, capitalist economics, and the state as it then existed. What the anarchist philosophers were advocating was a new kind of order.”
Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, the first modern political philosopher to declare himself an anarchist, and considered the “father of anarchism,” wrote: “Anarchy is order without power.”
The American anarchist Emma Goldman later stated: “Anarchism stands for a social order based on the free grouping of individuals for the purpose of producing real social wealth, an order that will guarantee to every human being free access to the earth and full enjoyment of the necessities of life, according to individual desires, tastes, and inclinations.”
A statement from Volcano Art Center says, "The mixed media exhibition features original paintings, prints, sculptures, and ceramics by both professional, amateur and student artists who continue to investigate the same issues that motivated the original anarchist movement and in many ways are even more critical today."

The Art & Anarchy exhibition can be viewed in Dietrich Varez Hall in the Hale Hoʻomana building at VAC’s Niaulani Campus.
VAC follows CDC guidelines and social distancing protocol. "Be prepared to wear a mask and keep a safe 6 ft. distance from others within the gallery. Additionally, VAC gallery is mandating a max. occupancy of 10 people within the gallery at one time (you may be asked to wait outside if the gallery is full), the use of hand sanitizer at the entrance, and regular cleaning of highly touched surfaces by VAC staff and volunteers," says the exhibition announcement.

"FIVE IS A SIGNAL TO THE COMMUNITY you shouldn’t be outside your living bubble,” said Gov. Davide Ige. He was talking on the Honolulu Star Advertiser Spotlight Hawai'i program today. He said that if COVID cases and hospitalizations do not go down, he may mandate that no more than five people can congregate indoors. The aim is to discourage gatherings of people indoors, outside of family bubbles, that become the venue for spreading COVID. He also said he may cut the gathering size for people outdoors to ten. Currently it is ten indoors and 25 outdoors, with a ban on big events.
The governor did acknowledge that the trend in case numbers is heading down. The average number of daily new cases during the last week was 556. Two weeks ago it was 896. Today the statewide count of new cases was 461.
