Workers of the World, Unite!

10:00 am to 05:00 pm on Dec 30
IU Art Museum, 1133 E. 7th Street
http://www.artmuseum.iu.edu

Continuing through December 30, 2012, Tuesday through Saturday 10 am-5 pm, Sunday 12-5 pm.

Gallery of the Art of the Western World, Doris Steinmetz Kellett Endowed Gallery of Twentieth-century Art, first floor.

In honor of Labor Day, Rockwell Kent’s iconic engraving is on display along with three other prints by this American Social Realist. Kent’s works were widely published in leftist journals in the 1930s, and his style and activist politics made him a favorite in the Soviet Union. This apocalyptic image of a lone worker fighting against aggressors with bayonets bears a title taken from Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto that became a battle cry at labor strikes and protests worldwide.
