this drawing on Saatchi Art.
Artist's
statement:
"I
created this drawing just as the 'Shock and Awe' U.S.
bombing and invasion of Iraq started in 2003, and
it was circulated on the street as a flyer. My artwork
was eventually published in the book, Peace Signs
- The Anti-War Movement Illustrated, a collection
of international artworks in opposition to the war
on Iraq."
The
original drawing was exhibited at San Francisco's
Meridian
Gallery from Sept. 4th, 2008, through Nov. 4th,
2008, during the gallery's War & Empire
exhibit. The group show featured over 40 artists,
including Fernando Botero, Guy Colwell, Sandow Birk,
Gee Vaucher and Patrick Oliphant.
