Description

This print is called: Modern Man Followed by the ghosts of his Meat... and is by well-known artist, Sue Coe .

"Sue Coe is a keen observer, a 'graphic witness' to realities more often overlooked or avoided. She is a journalist who uses printed images in preference to words. For a quarter century she has explored  factory farming,  meat packing,  aparteid, sweat shops, prisons,  AIDS, and most recently,  war.  Her commentary on  political events  and social injustice is published in  newspapers, magazines  and  books. The results of her investigations are hung in  museum and gallery exhibitions and form an essential part of personal fine print collections by artists and activists alike. Coe paintings and prints are auctioned as fund raisers for a variety of progressive causes, and since 1998, she has sold prints  here  to benefit animal rights organizations. Currently, she sells work to benefit  In Defense of Animals and Farm Sanctuary."
