In the current political environment saturated by political aggression and segregation along various power lines, processes of reconciliation and forgiveness have been strategically used as tactics for political and social manipulations. For this two-day exhibition at The New School, artists are asked to contribute a statement, video, image or text to address the possibilities of “Reestablishing of Cordial Relations” or “Forgiveness” in the context of their work and political environment.
