Beauty is Resistance: art as antidote at browngrotta arts (October 11 – 19) explores how aesthetic creation—especially within textile, fiber, and material-based practices—serves as a form of radical defiance, cultural preservation, and political voice. In an age of political polarization, ecological crisis, and commodification, beauty might seem like a luxury—or a distraction. But for the artists in this exhibition, beauty is not a retreat from reality. It is a strategy of survival, remembrance, and resistance. Beauty is Resistance will feature more than two dozen international artists who harness the power of beauty not as escape but as agency: to mourn, to protest, to remember, to heal, and to imagine.
