NAGASAKI NIGHTMARE

by Mark Vallen - ART FOR A CHANGE (vallen [at] art-for-a-change.com)
Artworks created by Atom Bomb Survivors. "America has not been given the right to impose a
'Pax Americana' and to decide the fate of the world Rather,
we, the people of the world, have the right to insist that we
have not given you the authority to destroy the world."
- Tadatoshi Akiba, Mayor of Hiroshima. Aug. 6th 2002

On August 6th, 1945, at precisely 8:15 in the morning,
the first Atomic Bomb was dropped on a civilian
population. Years later, the hibakusha (Atom Bomb
survivors), created Artworks based on their memories
of that fateful day. ART FOR A CHANGE has on
display a number of these works, including the words
of the Artist's themselves. To view these profound works
of Art, visit ART FOR A CHANGE.
