From the dawn of time to the present day, from Afghanistan’s mountains to shores of Normandy, this world has seen her fair share of conflict. You may ask: “What is war?” Holocaust survivors can answer: “Men possessed by Evil!”

Late Lennon’s soulful song overpraising Utopian paradise: IMAGINE, even that masterpiece couldn’t stop operatives from carrying on their martial agendas. How ironic that the life of a pacifist should have been taken violently! What will it take to bring peace to our world?



Clue: Find the artist, his genre, and one of his works herein.

I am seriously cross-threading, but Beck was the first to do this. Beck: this one's for you. smile

Out in remote Victorville
A young pilot was testing his skill.
In his glider he flew
Right up into the blue
And discovered a new kind of thrill.

Oh what the heck, I must go home and my computer at home refuses to online, and so Mister Coffee, I must hurry my answer...

ANDY WARHOL POP ART and KEN (of Ken and Barbie)

I really don't think Ken's screen print was that popular but what the heck - time's awasting. frown

You got two out of three, Jenny.

From the dawn of time to the present day, from Afghanistan’s mountains to shores of Normandy, this world has seen her fair share of conflict. You may ask: “What is war?” Holocaust survivors can answer: “Men possessed by Evil!”

But "Ken" is not the right answer. Keep looking.

I thought perhaps "Pumping Iron." "Iron" is in there, but I don't see the "pumping." (I'm not familiar with any but his most famous works - where's Jackie on this thread?)

"FIST" ( a Cassius Clay print)
