The more closely the art world aligns itself with the upper echelons of global capital, the less it seems like a potential force for radical social change. Enter [*Into Action*](http://into-action.us/?ref=hyperallergic.com), a nine-day long pop-up exhibition that aims to reinforce the connection between art and social justice, activism, and cultural resistance.
