…maps can really point to places
Where life is evil now:
Nanking. Dachau.
Auden wrote this in 1939, and barely 80 years later, we can put our fingers on a map where life is again evil, add an iamb, have it read:
And maps can really point to places
Where life is evil now:
Nanking. Ukraine. Dachau.
The painting is the 3rd of my Villains and Victims series – the first, incidentally, being Navalny and Putin. I didn’t think I would have Putin again as a subject. Events sped my brush.
Art can’t do much more than pay attention. No one wants to be a hero, we want to live tranquil lives. Yet here we see resolution and bravery, daily. Let us support them in their hour of need!
