Artivism is what you get when you cross art with activism. As regular readers of this blog know, I enjoy posting anti-consumer and anti-establishment art that is subversive, satirical, and thought-provoking.
I recently came across another artivist that fits the bill and belongs in the Not Buying Anything Gallery.
French street artist Kurar "fearlessly tackles sensitive issues that the world deals with today, and he does it with a pinch of humour and in the manner of an effective wake-up call to our culture and society".
Consumerism is only one issue this artivist depicts in his art, and he does so powerfully. His use of children in his works makes his work even more powerful, and appropriately disturbing.
