Aesthetic Justice is the second collaborative exhibition project between Provisions Learning Project and Lambent Foundation. Curated by Niels Van Tomme, the project considers justice from an aesthetic instead of a normative perspective. Investigating how the works of art’s specific aesthetic frameworks negotiate the subject matters they address, the exhibition presents the work of five international artists: Alyse Emdur, Rajkamal Kahlon, Carlos Motta and Josué Euceda, and Larissa Sansour.
Aesthetic Justice is now available as a downloadable booklet that invites readers to take a closer look at the exhibition. It brings together two texts by Lambent Foundation Senior Program Manager Shannon Brunette and Provisions Learning Project Director of Arts and Media Niels Van Tomme, artworks by Alyse Emdur, Rajkamal Kahlon, Carlos Motta and Josué Euceda, and Larissa Sansour, installation shots by Kelly Neal, and a recommended reading list.
