“Art Against War: 400 Years of Protest in Art” by D.J.R. Bruckner, Steven Heller, Seymour Chwast .
Powerful collection of images that shock, startle and amaze.
“The Deserter” by Boardman Robinson (1916). “.. it is interesting that, in his defense of pacifists, he used the figure of Jesus Christ as a modern-day traitor to the warring state. … he was one of the few Americans who deliberately needled the Christian conscience that way.” (p50-51)
“War is Good Business. Invest Your Son.”
“Pass the Lord and Praise the Ammunition.” (p110)
“... never ceasing effort to remove its barrier shall we make .. for PEACE..” [1978]
U. G. Sato (Japan) created a picture of a dove forming within a chain link fence. (p121)
