Politics

Historical and contemporary artists alike commonly express their views about important subjects and use their artwork to make statements about politics. The popular phrase "the personal is political" is evident here in work made by artists that express patriotism in different forms - by both celebrating and by critiquing political institutions and figures - and by tying their personal experiences with incarceration to larger structural issues.
