The Guillotinas are playing a set at the Veteran Voce art show!
Join us at Galeria E.V.A from November 9-11 for a powerful exhibition showcasing the voices of veterans through art, music and conversation. This Veterans Day, we honor those who served by amplifying their unique perspectives and experiences.
Art as Expression
Veterans often struggle to convey the complex emotions and experiences of war. Art provides a vital outlet for self-expression, allowing veterans to process trauma and share their stories in profound ways. Through various mediums, from paintings to sculptures, veterans can communicate what words alone cannot capture.
The Power of Dissident Art
This exhibition focuses on dissident art created by veterans who found themselves at odds with the conflicts they were involved in. These brave individuals used their creativity to challenge the status quo and speak out against injustices they witnessed. Their work serves as a testament to the moral courage required to question authority and stand up for one's beliefs, even in the face of adversity.
Featured Works
Visitors will encounter a diverse range of artwork, including:
- Powerful photographs documenting acts of resistance, healing and transformation
- Paintings and printmaking exploring the psychological and generational impact of war
- Multimedia installations addressing social and political issues
- Live Musical performance and interactive activities
Each piece offers a unique window into the veteran experience and the ongoing struggle for peace and justice.
