The relationships between art, aesthetics, and law allow for the understanding of a necessary yet understudied nexus between these disciplines, particularly applicable to Human Rights, Transitional Justice, and Constitutional Law. In this sense, this workshop aims to foster a transdisciplinary dialogue to propose analyses tending to establish the contribution of cultural heritage and the arts to the law, the defence of democracy, and human rights.

Thus, the following lines of analysis are proposed:

1. Cultural rights.
2. The right to symbolic reparation.
3. Aesthetic and Artistic Litigation for the defence of Human Rights.
4. Museology and cultural heritage with a Human Rights focus.
5. Women’s rights and Art.

Emphasis is placed on the importance of proposing analyses from decolonial perspectives, which seek to question power structures inherited from colonialism, highlighting the knowledge systems inherent to communities and the feminine in relation to art and law.
