About this Exhibition:
Violence Transformed: STAND TOGETHER pairs current and former SMFA at Tufts faculty with their alumni and current students in an exhibition that demonstrates the connective power of art and artistic mentorship to foster social awareness, social justice and social change.
STAND TOGETHER highlights that challenge and sheds light on the violence, bigotry, and social injustice that seem at times to permeate our current social order, and that brings to the forefront shared visions of a tolerant, diverse, just and non-violent world. The exhibition includes both collaborative works created by a single pair of artists, and separate, but paired, works that have been created by artists to speak to one another.
