This exhibition included some seventy works that explore George Biddle’s creative engagement with a full spectrum of social change during his lifetime: the cultural resonances of both World Wars, the Russian Revolution, the executions of anarchists Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, the Great Depression, the Holocaust, and white supremacy. Biddle was ahead of his time in addressing issues of race, exploitation, and social class, and was a lifelong advocate of the arts as a healing force for a turbulent planet.
