Ethics

In creating Attention!, we as curators were challenged to consider our ethical responsibilities. It is not unusual to encounter a conflict of interest between what is best for the exhibition from a curatorial perspective and what is ethical. We made sure that each decision was guided by the same set of principles: 

  1. Non-maleficence
  2. Respect for diversity of beliefs
  3. Respect for the value of science
  4. Solidarity
  5. Beneficence

Our decision on how to best exhibit the Unborn Fetus followed much group discussion. As consent was not an option, our curatorial decisions have been guided by the 2004 Human Tissue Act and have made sure to respect the privacy and dignity of the subject.
