Not Normal: Art in the Age of Trump
"Not Normal: Art in the Age of Trump", Second Edition, is a visual protest of the Trump administration featuring 147 artists with over 350 works. Artists around the United States are raging against Donald Trump in visual protest. Not Normal: Art in the Age of Trump documents this artistic movement in a curated collection. Their outrage is evidenced in full Technicolor on subjects ranging from racism, the Covid pandemic, xenophobia, immigration, promotion of hatred and violence, mistrust of science and facts, misogyny and of course, a narcissism that puts our entire country and world at great risk. While the subject matter is serious, the art is alive with color and detail and is delivered with an irreverent sense of humor. About the Author: Karen M.
