Best of Activism in Art: I

By Sarah S. Vati

Activism in Art is a group on the website for art collectors and artists fineartamerica.com, and also a rather fertile topic, especially now that the economic crisis leads artists (and people in general) to review their beliefs, their principles, their role in society, and, in brief, what really matters in life.
This book is part of a special issue featuring art and photographs by the members of the Activism in Art group, and pieces with activism as the key topic. This is the first book of a series, in which we hope to feature some of the best contributions to this group.
Each of the books in this series is divided into two sections: the first section (About the Artists) presents each artist with a biographical sketch, while the second section is a showcase of their work. By clicking on the name of the artist, it is possible to go directly to their artwork. A small index of contents is also available, in order to more easily use this ebook.

Now living partly in the United States, a third studio in Pittsburgh, USA has been added to the ones in Malta and Melbourne,
