Vegetarianism in art
SILENT SLIDESHOW (25MB PDF)
Human exploitation of animals for food as depicted in European and American painting. So this is also about "Meat in Art."
-
This silent slideshow PDF of 122 images is highly compressed, so pixelated, and not the high resolution that I project during live slideshows.
-
Optimized for viewing on a 1920 x 1080 pixels monitor.
-
Cellphone junkies, you can view a 1024x768 pixel 10MB older slideshow here.
-
Best NOT to view this PDF in your browser, instead download it to view as a slideshow with Adobe Reader.

Thanks to a 2019 grant provided by the Culture and Animals Foundation, this was transformed into a narrated video. See the link to YouTube at the top of this webpage.
Vegan Vegetarianism in art
Themes explored in this slideshow include:
VOLUPTAS CARNIS, canonical Latin for Beware the Perils of the Pleasures of the Flesh. By Flesh is meant sexual lust, but we secular 21st century vegheads may interpret this as meat.
CARCASS as CRUCIFIX, attributed to Christian iconography, not to vegetarian blasphemy.
