"In Our Dreams"
The documentary, The Rape of Europa, inspired this series of works about art and artists versus the value of the object and human life. Hitler, being a young, banal artist was rejected by the art academy but then later turned to the Inquisition and other sources to acquire his visuals for the dissemination and death of people groups and artists, many of whom he deemed "degenerate". He also developed multicolor-coded triangles for victims in the concentration camps to wear, denigrating them as a particular deviant.
Installation, David & Goliath, Abstract I, #8463, Degenerate Artists Series with Antichrist (center), Abstract II
