Language of Human Rights

 

The Language of Human Rights poster was created for the 1989 Washington, D.C., “Art for Amnesty” campaign. Carol Brown Goldberg reimagines language as a unifying force, spiraling English, Chinese, Hebrew, and Arabic together within a shared visual space.

This recording features Goldberg discussing the poster and her process.
