A collaboration between the Cultural Center and the Visual Artists Guild, was an exhibition of international artists' responses to the state of politics and human rights since the watershed events of 1989, curated by Diana Wong.
Recent work by local, national and international artists examines profound, humorous, upbeat and scathing views of the human political condition in an intense, multi-disciplinary dialogue on the issues. This exciting event will provoke strong reactions.
