Propaganda Art in Venezuela
Interesting piece in the NY Times about street artists in Venezuela using murals to express their political views. Critics panned these murals as propaganda art (due to government support & financing ) vs an opportunity for expression in the public space.
The images have sparked debate and dialogue, which I believe is the intent of any good piece of art. I’ve always believe if a piece of art does not elicit response from the viewer… it has been poorly executed. Check out the article.
