‘How can you be an artist and not reflect the times’
​…Nina Simone

Members of the LC Art Gallery come together in the upcoming exhibition, Sign of the Times: the Art of Protest to make statements about the current local or global political climate. Throughout history, artists have been and continue to be, in the forefront by making statements and rallying for social change.
Think…Picasso’s Guernica, Joseph Beuys, the Guerrilla Girls, Banksy, Pussy Riot and Ai Weiwei, just to name but a few.

In addition to the exhibition in the gallery, there will be a display of Protest Signs on the front lawn of the gallery during the ArtWalk weekend, September 8th and 9th.
​
Sign of the Times: the Art of Protest runs August 30th to September 30th
