Art is Dangerous
Artists on Injustice and Inequality
Sussel Gallery
Calling out injustice and inequality where they have found it, these artists call us IN as witnesses to pay attention, to notice what previously we have not, and to engage with empathy. By doing this, we invite and accept one of the most dangerous risks we can face: the possibility that we may change our minds, and in doing so, may take action.

Claudia Esslinger

A Meditation on Losing the Night
MJ Sharp

Essential Matter

Their essential origins and fundamental characteristics are carried through into new creations
