love the rebellious nature of artistic expression. We think using art as a way to stand up for ideas
and beliefs is both interesting and powerful, it is something we look to achieve in all of our
personal work. When exploring our separate subjects we looked for art that spanned across many
different mediums, things like visual art and music were the most prevalent but we then studied
more distinct forms. Art such as wood block printing and interpretive dance were some of the
more unique examples. We then moved away from primary sources and approached secondary
sources, these research and thesis papers dove into the meaning and symbolism. We then
compiled our work and organized it in chronological and theme based order.
the best way to lay out all of the artwork that we found and to show the progression of the use of
propaganda through warfare in United States history. To create our project we spent a lot of time
trying to find the best protest art possible that could be used to represent what happened
throughout each of the periods of warfare. We looked for quotes from prestigious sources that we
could use to back up each of our arguments about how propaganda was a big influence on the
20th century in American history, and how at times it was one of the most powerful weapons that
we had. We arranged our information chronologically so that it would be easy for viewers to
understand and would also show the evolution and advancement in this art form. We also wanted

propaganda, propaganda is a coin that holds opposing opinions on each face. We saw a lot of
citizen based art propaganda, that used lyrical or literal imagery to change the minds of people
who were for the war movements. The simplicity of art performs greatly in the minds of people,
human beings place meaning on anything. All that matters is what a person places the meaning
upon.
