Correll (1904-1990), an American printmaker. He began his career as an artist under the Federal Art Project of the Works Progress Administration (WPA). Correll maintained a style that was uniquely his own, but he is also associated with the school of Social Realism. Many of his prints are characterized by striking, graphic visuals that convey a social, political, or environmental message. The prints in this book include subjects such as the Civil Rights Movement, the labor movements, war, and environmental activism. Published on the occasion of the centennial of the artist's birth.
