Created by artists expressing their feelings about current events.
These books acknowledge and record a history
that will affect
all people of conscience.
"The medium of linocut renders forms in harsh
contrasts, and in Kerson and Katah’s prints
that sharp focus becomes a metaphor
for the dualities of rich and poor, peace
and war, justice and injustice portrayed in
the series. Borders and the troubles t
hey spawn become a recurring theme
in the show. So do militarism, corruption,
and economic terrorism."
Betrayed, Double Crossed,
Lied to and Deceived
