this is my topic for essay #3
Im choosing to write about the war and its different point of view that come from civilian and military personal. I believe the majority of people want peace in the world. This art work is by Banksy as you can see he is relating different messages. What i would describe that i see in this graffiti is an expression that I believe, is hard for People to imagine. That regardless of the duty of a military personal they also want peace. Also this is to show how graffiti, a form of art, that can be also serve as a political protest or message. this is just the beginning of an interesting relation ship,for the relationship of art and politics has never been clandestine.

This is a great, great text to work with. The other images are great too - you might mention them to give us an idea about his work, but you'll want to use this one as a thread throughout the essay. As you research, you'll want to look at context: when did this image appear and why? What is known (and not known) about the artist? What reactions to the image have their been?
ReplyDeleteI love Banksy! His works are so controversial. Graffiti continues to play an important role in the expression of so many young artists. Check out this link:

Brian - I also meant to tell you that there's an interesting exhibit of art by vets in the entrance to the M building - one project involves turning combat fabrics into paper to write on- might be interesting for you to check out.
