Virtual Exhibition "As Human (for Edward Said)"
Curated by Adam J. Lerner, Denver Art Museum / The Lab at Belmar, Denver, Colorado

In this month's Virtual Exhibition, Adam Lerner from the Denver Art Museum / The Lab at Belmar explores the legacy of humanism in art and thought since WWII.

The meaning and value of humanism has changed dramatically from the end of WWII to the present. Martin Heidegger's 1946 "Letter on Humanism" began a long negative relation to the concept. The philosopher's attempt to avoid elevating "the human being to the center of beings" was bolstered by later feminist and multi-cultural perspectives that drew attention to the brutality of those speaking in the name of "Man."    morearrow
