Can art purify human nature? Elevate morality? Sooth the savage beast? Stop wars? Eradicate evil? Or at least get the world thinking in that direction? The masterpiece by Pablo Picasso in 1934, “Guernica,” is said to be the most powerful anti-war painting ever created. But has it stopped one bullet from being fired or one bomb from being dropped?
I never thought about this before. Knowing that there is anti- war art, but wondering whether there is any real world impact on the fighting of wars, is a bit of a jump. Thank you

Just what I needed this morning, thanks!
