Violence is the name of the game
David Cronenberg's A History of Violence is the inspiration behind Prasad Raghavan's works. One work, Angels with Dirty Faces, showcases various classifieds hawking massage parlours. Yet another, Bullets or Ballots, shows the hierarchical system of our democracy. Then there is Once Upon a Time in America, where the Statue of Liberty has the face of a Red Indian, the original inhabitants of America.
Violence is the underlying theme in the works of other artists too. Radhika Khimji's series of collages display terror at its worst. Gordon Cheung's Disaster of Terror series has images showing the Abu Ghraib abuse in Iraq. Go see it for yourself.
