Art is an Instrument of War

“What do you think an artist is? … they are political beings, constantly aware of the heartbreaking, passionate, or delightful things that happen in the world, shaping themselves entirely in their image.

“Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war.”- Pablo Picasso.

Art is made to defend something or fight against something. It isn't art if it doesn’t do one of these two things.
