About this work

This print shows two black-and-white figures—one standing, one kneeling—with their arms crossed by bold red X shapes. The background looks like a busy street or crowd, but it’s blurred and dark. The red Xs are thick, almost like they’re blocking the people out. The title written in the top left says *"Kill for Peace."* That’s the only clear text, and it stands out against the black-and-white image. The red Xs also have tiny holes punched through them, which makes the print look rough and raw. If you want to see more prints like this, check out The Museum of Modern Art.
