Print As Protest, OPENS Mar. 27 from 6-9 @ Los Angeles Valley College, LA, CA.
Mar, 2019
“A Political Message of Self Help”, 18x 11” x 17” color-copy images on newsprint. 2019. The piece is a ‘take away’, each image is an open edition and available for free to take away.
_____________________________________________
This piece is about moving on, starting over, letting go and taking care of yourself. The images in the grid are cars, trucks and vans driven by plants and animals, juxtaposed with some handwritten text in unique fonts. It is simply about giving space to hopeful thinking and offering a moment of humor. It’s the radical idea that taking care of yourself might be a politically health position, that encouraging this position might help others and lead to changed attitudes.
(Los Angeles, CA) Los Angeles Valley College is pleased to announce Print as Protest, featuring the work of Inge Bruggeman, Diana-Sofia Estrada, Michael Krueger, Kimiko Miyoshi, Tim Musso, and Sergio Teran, along with a special project by students from PRINT IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT: Artistic Agency & The Print Multiple, UC Santa Barbara. Print as Protest explores the idea of art as a tool for political activism and resistance and the history of printmaking as a democratic and accessible means of conveying ideas and information.
