Exhibition and Programming Investigate Artistic Depictions of Mass Incarceration

An exhibition and its associated programming delve into artistic representations of mass incarceration. The project specifically examines and draws lessons from imagery originating in Ferguson, Missouri. The initiative explores how artists engage with and respond to systems of policing and imprisonment through visual means. It focuses on the visual documentation and artistic interpretation of events in Ferguson, a location that became emblematic of police violence and protest. The programming extends beyond the exhibition itself to include additional educational or discursive components. The work centers on analyzing the visual culture surrounding incarceration and law enforcement. The exhibition uses artistic practice as a lens to understand and critique institutional power. It engages with contemporary issues of justice and representation through a curated visual inquiry.
