Art in Service of Revolution is a look at the importance of art in revolutions and how revolutions are depicted in artistic works. It will look at works representing the French, American, Russian, and the Chinese Cultural Revolutions. The exhibition will look into the role that art plays in building support for ruling regimes, whether it be through narrative scenes or propagandistic posters. Reversely, how art is used to show dissent or frustration with the ruling powers or the revolution itself will also be explored. How certain events or people important to the revolution are depicted also has an impact on how the works of art are meant to be received by the viewers. The exhibition will also delve into the influence that revolutions have on artistic movements. Although these revolutions take place across the span of hundreds of years, the importance and influence of art in moments of revolution is displayed throughout each work represented here.
