This is another of our Art Snap curations here on ArtUK. This curation is also available as a video with commentary by our Collections and Exhibitions Officer, Katie Ackrill. Head over to the Swindon Museum and Art Gallery YouTube channel to watch the video.
In this curation, titled 'Conflict’, we're taking a look at artworks which delve into the themes of conflict, and how artworks respond to these times of conflict. We will be viewing pieces from artists who have encountered conflict firsthand.
