Description

Inspired by Kathe Kollwitz′s iconic etching from the Peasant War series, ″Outbreak from Bauernkrieg,″ this exhibition underscores the human condition. Taking queue from Kollwitz′s print, which depicts the effects of poverty, war and hunger on the working class, curators Emily Brostek and Claudia Preza bring together a group show of contemporary art works that dignify their subjects and depict triumph over oppressive socio-political conditions.

Works by: Patricia Cazorla & Nancy Saleme, Scherezade Garcia, Mona Saeed Kamal, Käthe Kollwitz, Diana Kurz, Hayoon Jay Lee, jc lenochan, Liliya Lifanova, Alan MacWeeney, Gregory Sholette, Peter Turnley
