Not Normal: Art in the Age of Trump-- Changing the World through Art!
>
Our friend Nancy Ohanian sent me the video up top to share. Not Normal: Art in the Age of Trump is a visual protest of the Trump Regime, a kind of a document of our time featuring 147 artists with over 350 works brought together in a book by curator Karen Gutfreund. Artists around the United States are raging against Donald Trump in visual protest. Not Normal documents this artistic movement. Their outrage is evidenced in full color on subjects ranging from racism, the Covid pandemic, xenophobia, immigration, promotion of hatred and violence, mistrust of science and facts, misogyny and of course, a narcissism that puts our entire country and world at great risk.
And while the subject matter is serious-- dead serious-- the art is alive with color, detail, and multi-layered messages, and is delivered with an irreverent sense of humor. Protest is Patriotic! And you won't find any of that phony-baloney bourgeois "both sides" bullshit here. Artists detest Trump for what he's done to our country and their work isn't hiding it. Much more here.

Thank you so much--Protest is Patriotic!I appreciate you posting this.Other stuff on "Not Normal" to check out to at www.karengutfreund.com
as for "both sides" 'bullshit', all that proves is that art takes intelligence, and those who support the democraps are far too stupid to be artistic.
They hate trump (presumably Reagan, HW, cheney/W too) for what he's done. But they don't hate the democraps for refusing to remedy anything any of them have done?
maybe the artists aren't any too bright either.
used to be that art was against war or poverty or racism or greed. ALL perpetrators of these evils were targets.
now, since nobody understands anything at all, art is against one guy while they let the other guy (also a lifelong racist, misogynist, corrupt fascist and warmonger) skate with the implication that, since he ain't trump, he's golden.
wtf went wrong with americans?
