Brittany Broski | you are not immune to propaganda @Brittany_Broski | Uploaded July 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
if i'm interested in WWI then everyone else will be interested in WWI as well. its my national decree. and history fixation of the month. enjoy!

thank u as always to my incredibly talented editor @lastmanstanley he always nails these art history video essays. big ups to the big dawg

this originally started as me wanting to do a video on Picasso's Guernica ,but the more i researched and dove head first into it, the more i became intrigued with how war, surrealism, and propaganda are all intertwined.

i ended up exploring how a bunch of themes, namely the impact of horrors of war on art, the lost generation, the rise of surrealism and absurdism, anti & pro-war art, all inter-mingle and define wartime culture.

hope u enjoy or at the very minimum learned something u didnt know before! love u guys thanks for watching see u next week hehe
