Eyal Weizman and Thomas Keenan’s exhibition Forensic Aesthetics is on show at Pauza Gallery in Krakow until June 15, as part of Krakow Photomonth Festival 2014. The exhibition shows how, starting from the identification of Josef Mengele’s remains in the 1980s, human bones – and more recently also DNA samples and satellite photos – have become key evidence in enquiries involving genocide and war crimes. The curators aim to answer the question of what role imaging techniques and methods of representation play in processes related to crimes and politically motivated acts of violence. They also analyse the procedures and methods used in criminology, as well as the mutual relations of science, politics and the media.

Pauza Gallery is located at ul. Floriańska 18/5, (2nd floor). More information can be found on their website [PL] and in the Photomonth program [ENG].
