Many citizens of the United States have spoken out against Trump by organizing, protesting, voting, writing and making art. Most of us have hoped for the impeachment of this inept, cruel, lying and corrupt con man who is a danger to our country and to the world. We the people of the United States will continue to speak out and fight against Trump.
I am pleased to present the online exhibition ARTISTS FIGHT TRUMP. This includes the artists Rita Valley, Sue Coe, Jackie Lima, Carla Rae Johnson and Karen Guancione. For over two years these artists have dedicated their art work and lives to fighting Trump.
This past year I was introduced to the work of Rita Valley and Carla Rae Johnson at ODETTA Gallery in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Their work is both beautiful, biting and humorous. I am thrilled they are participating. For many years I have been aware of and appreciative of Jackie Lima’s work and was totally taken with her new anti-Trump art work. I am very appreciative that she has allowed me to show it here. I am honored to have Sue Coe participating in ARTIST FIGHT TRUMP and thank both Sue Coe and Galerie St. Etienne for making this possible. The artist Karen Guancione has spent an extraordinary amount of time organizing and protesting against Trump. I wanted to include photographs of Karen’s work as an activist fighting Trump in the streets. Thanks to Karen for all her incredible work and thanks to all the artists for their dedication and powerful art and for being part of ARTISTS FIGHT TRUMP.
