American Artists Against War, 1935 - 2010 Hardcover - 2015
by David McCarthy
From the rear cover
"David McCarthy's book is an important contribution to the history of twentieth-century American political art, demonstrating the remarkable number of artists who created and curators and critics who promoted antiwar art. This text should be of broad interest to both scholars and general readers."--Ccile Whiting, author of Pop L.A.: Art and the City in the 1960s
"In this dauntingly ambitious yet highly accessible book, McCarthy has accomplished something completely unique. Though many have written about art inspired by war, this is the first comprehensive attempt to contextualize it within the political history of a seventy-five-year period. Further, as the title suggests, it places a greater focus than previous works on the role of artist as citizen in time of war, thus demonstrating that creative activism has a long and proud trajectory in this country."--Nina Felshin, curator, writer, activist, and editor of But Is it Art? The Spirit of Art as Activism
