Aaron Hughes Exhibition Tour

Join us for exhibition tour of Resisting the Long War: A Revolution of Values led by Curator and Iraq War veteran, Aaron Hughes.

Aaron Hughes is an artist, curator, and anti-war veteran. Working through an interdisciplinary practice rooted in drawing and printmaking, Hughes works collaboratively to create meaning out of personal and collective trauma, transform systems of oppression, and seek liberation. He develops projects that utilize popular research strategies, experiment with forms of direct democracy, and operate in solidarity with the people most impacted by structural violence.

Along with Amber Zora and Mohamad Mehdi, he is co-curator of the Veteran’s Art Triennial

Hughes works with a range of art and activist groups including Justseeds Artists' Cooperative, About Face: Veterans Against the War, emerging Veteran Art Movement, and Prison + Neighborhood Arts/Education Project.

Hughes lives and works in Chicago.
