THE ART OF HUMAN DIGNITY AND THE HUMAN DIGNITY OF ART: EDITORIAL

Abstract

Art is integral to being human. Art gives us meaning and challenges us. For some, art is so confronting that they seek to ban or destroy it. In this Special Issue we want to contest the bounds and legality of art to emphasise the human dignity of art and in turn challenge the art of human dignity. What does the regulation of art really say about us as humans?
