/PanARMENIAN.Net/ International Institute for Genocide and Human
Rights Studies (A Division of the Zoryan Institute) organizes an
exclusive live auction featuring the works of Armenian and non-Armenian
artists. As PanARMENIAN.Net came to know from ANCC, the works focus
on the issues of genocide, mass human rights violations and memory.
This event is hosted by the International Institute for Genocide and
Human Rights Studies (IIGHRS), which has always aimed to be innovative
in its approach to genocide studies through its multi-disciplinary
and comparative perspectives. In keeping with this tradition, the
IIGHRS is hosting this event and a coinciding exhibit to explore
genocide education through the arts in order to raise awareness and
to highlight the universal humanity of the experience.
The event "Remains to be seen" involves an open-call multi-media art
exhibit of emerging and established North American artists, inviting
them to convey their thoughts, experiences, and perceptions of events
surrounding genocide, its consequences and the healing process. The
exhibit will be held at the Lennox Contemporary Gallery in Toronto from
May 28th to June 7th. Rhonda Corvese, the award-winning Toronto-based
independent curator, will curate the exhibit.
