And When I Want to Fly Home What Do I Do?

Raymond Pettibon's I Want To Be The Girl In The Wig Commercial, 1989 lithograph with line drawing of woman's face and ironic text critique on media influence.

// I Want To Be The Girl In The Wig Commercial by Raymond Pettibon is a 1989 lithograph that captures a sense of irony and cultural commentary through minimalistic line art.

What is activist art?

Activist Art is a form of art created to address social and political issues. It often involves public engagement and works closely with communities to raise awareness or inspire change. While it can include elements of performance art, it is not limited to this form. Examples include creating and distributing social protest posters or organizing community-based art projects that highlight specific causes.
