Art Works Projects

If you’re in Arles for the photo festival next week please come and introduce yourself to AWP’s Leslie Thomas. She’s honored to be leading a workshop on photography and human rights advocacy with The VII Foundation and would love to learn about your projects.

“Silence, indifference, and accommodation” assist tyranny. Words spoken today at the opening of the as Art in Protest exhibition is opened with the work behind the doors created by artists who have been silenced but who are heard. Luis Manuel Otero Alcantara, the Gao Brothers, Song Byeok, Zehra Dogan, Pedro X. Molina, Azza Abo Rebieh, and Reyma Suprani have been censored - but they are here for this vibrant discussion of global human rights.
