Heron Arts: Captured - People In Prison Drawing People Who Should Be. Curated by Jeff Greenspan and Andrew Tider
Comment by AB: Corporations do a lot of good and also a lot of not-so-good. The not-so-good part is what's on the menu tonight. With the blessings of their free-range CEOs, some companies engage in business practices that adversely affect the lives of anywhere from thousands to millions of innocent human beings. At the same time, comparatively infinitesimal offenses can easily land your basic powerless underclass citizens in the slammer for years or even decades. To illustrate this absurdity, prison inmates paint and draw portraits of corporate leaders who continue to live lives of complete freedom while compromising the lives of others in the name of profits and progress. Plenty to think about here. Stop on by.
