Making a Difference with Your Art in Today’s World – Ep 1

About The Show

In 1937, outraged by reports and photos of the German air force’s bombing of civilians during the Spanish Civil War, Pablo Picasso painted Guernica, in response to the destruction of the town of that name. He used his art to spread the message around the world. Guernica has become a representation of every city ever bombed including the war in Ukraine.

Join me to talk about use our art to communicate and bring awareness of peace, or to its dichotomy, war. We can use our art to circle the globe and unite. It’s always been our role, now we must begin and no matter what, continue to connect and tell our stories through imagery, film, words, music — whatever our art form – all with the message to create peace and end the war.
