Political Art News
Posted by jessica

It’s near impossible to dodge governmental issues—especially as our primary races here in the U.S. continue to garner “historic” status for closer-than-close results—so today we bring you a couple of arts items that delve into the political realm.

British artist Peter Kennard offers in the New Statesman his take on the new artist-activists (yes, this includes Bansky), with a list of four to watch. And back in the states, a certain fake politico’s mug currently hangs in the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery, according to The Huffington Post. (Fans of the Comedy Central show host might want to get to D.C. before the end of February; the portrait will only be on display for six weeks.)
