Artists for Resistance present "The Art of Resistance"
Washingtoner/10329143

ABERDEEN, Wash. - Washingtoner -- This 2-month long exhibition will open with a reception on August 2^nd, and will feature work that follows the long tradition of art that challenges societal norms.

Resistance art has been a cornerstone of human expression throughout history, from Goya, Diego Rivera, and Picasso to modern day artists, such as Banksy and Basquiat.  Albert Brooks once said, "Art and resistance are great together.  That's what art is made for.  Look at Vincent Van Gogh.  He didn't cut off his ear because he was selling well."
