Abstract Compassion: A Paradox in Art and Society investigates what space an artwork can occupy in the public domain, how it can draw attention to ethical issues in society, and how it can spur individuals and groups into action. The starting point for this theoretical and practice-based exploration is the conceptual artwork Flag of Compassion, initiated by Rini Hurkmans.
