Artikelnummer 10158142

The Art of War explores how art reflects, documents and condemns war and violence. The publication examines the logic and semantics of war, conflict, attack and defence, military leadership, abandoned battlefields, disturbing images, civilian casualties and destruction, war profiteering, mourning, shattered societies, peace and the enduring aspiration of "Never Again". Through contributions by Christophe Busch, Veerle Vanden Daelen, Andreas Niehaus, Luc De Vos, Frank van Vree, Marie Bamutese, Peter Verlinden, Tomas Baum, Dirk De Wachter, Herman Van Rompuy and Jean Paul Van Bendegem, the book links art, history, the Holocaust, human rights and contemporary society.
