Can Art Stop a Bullet?
Readings State Library, Woiwurrung Country, State Library Victoria, 285-321 Russell St, Melbourne 3000, Victoria
Join us, guest speaker Hugh de Kretser and other contributors for an evening of discussion about Can Art Stop a Bullet?.
The book, much like the acclaimed film, Can Art Stop a Bullet? is a series of conversations between artist William Kelly and dozens of international artists; where Kelly discusses art’s potential to influence peace and violence in the world. The book both complements the award winning documentary Can Art Stop a Bullet? William Kelly’s Big Picture and also works as an extended exploration of the thoughts of artists and thinkers such as Martin Sheen Nick Ut, A.C.Grayling and John Keane.
