Intimate Transgressions:Preview and Meet the Artists


Intimate Transgression, an international contemporary art exhibition drew to a close on 16 April. Hosted by Hangzhou Public Library, this visual art exhibition attracted a great many readers, students and social organizations since its opening on 2 April.

 

70 years on; organised war rape and genocide rape are now standard practice in many armed conflicts and women on every continent are affected. We wish to highlight this appalling abuse of human rights by presenting an exhibition where artists from all over the world explore the complex legacy bequeathed to our society by these destructive phenomena. While the exhibition will investigate individual and collective accountability, it will not be a documentary of horrors nor a mechanism for apportioning blame, rather it will speak of loss and resilience, of sorrow and our shared humanity.

 

The first and second stop of this exhibition was New York and Beijing, and the next stop will be Taiwan this October.
