Good grief.

“Historically, visual artists have been vehemently “apolitical”

This is patently absurd. Visual artists have been rabidly anti-conservative in almost unilateral lockstep. And, anti-Catholic. And, anti military.

One could not get a gallery show of Catholic art without have Christ in a toilet bowl or a Nun in drag.
