The Law Society of NSW’s “Just Art” exhibition opens tonight. The exhibit is a unique collection of artworks that reflect on the concept of justice and our justice system.
President of The Law Society of NSW, Doug Humphreys, says “Just Art” gives artistic members of the legal profession and artists who share a motivation for justice the opportunity to celebrate the rule of law through a creative medium.
These artworks fuse the world of law and expression to produce perhaps the most powerful collection of art in NSW exploring the concept of justice and the strengths and vulnerabilities of our justice system,” Mr Humphreys said.
Artworks include paintings, prints, digital illustrations, photography, video and portraits including those of the Honourable Justice Michael Kirby and the Honourable Justice James Macken.
A percentage of proceeds from “Just Art” will be donated to the President’s 2018 Charity, The Butterfly Foundation.
The People’s Choice Award will be presented on opening night tonight, Wednesday 27 June, 6:30pm.
