"#Guernica" von #Picasso hängt im Museum "Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía" in #Madrid.

Ich hatte das Glück es schon in Wirklichkeit zu sehen -
es ist schlicht umwerfend. Riesig und Furchteinflösend!

Jetzt ist es als Gigapixel-Bild online verfügbar und immer noch ein eindrucksvolles Statement gegen den #Krieg!

Repensar Guernica: una investigación sobre la obra-icono de Picasso

Today in Labor History April 15, 1986: Author Jean Genet died on this day. Genet was a novelists, political activist and petty criminal. His book, The Thief’s Journal (1949), relates his experiences as a young prostitute and thief. That same year, the authorities tried to sentence him to life in prison for his ten convictions. Jean Cocteau, Jean-Paul Sartre and Pablo Picasso successfully petitioned the government on his behalf. In 1968, Genet was censored in the U.S. and expelled from the country after they refused him a visa. But he returned in 1970, upon an invitation by the Black Panthers. He stayed three months, giving lectures and attending the trial of Huey Newton. Later that year, he went to Palestine and visited refugee camps. He supported U.S. political prisoners Angela Davis and George Jackson. He also supported the anti-prison, anti-police brutality work of Michel Foucault, in France.
