ON WAR & SURVIVAL


EXHIBITION MAY 3, 2019 - JULY 29, 2019
SUMMIT MAY 3, 2019 - MAY 5, 2019


With a focus on the visual, literary, performative and creative practices of veterans, the National Veterans Art Museum Triennial and Veteran Art Summit explores a century of war and survival while challenging the perception that war is something only those who have served in the military can comprehend. Throughout history, art has provided a frame to create meaning out of the complicated experience of war, seek justice and imagine reconciliation. The NVAM Triennial draws on this history to connect today’s veteran artists with the history of veteran creative practices and their impact on society over the past century. The NVAM Triennial exhibition opening coincides with the Veteran Art Summit. A series of presentations, workshops, panels, and discussions will be held May 3 - 5 at the Chicago Cultural CenterDePaul Art Museum, and National Veterans Art Museum.
