Art of the Covidian Age 2020-2022

Artists Who Best Captured the Zeitgeist of 2020-2022

At long last, we seem to be (hopefully) emerging from the nightmarish era of bio-tyranny; mandates, lockdowns and censorship. Future art historians may list the artists produced in this era in the same way they list artists from similar troubled times, for example, George Grosz and Otto Dix of Germany’s war years and the Weimar Republic.

The historians will likely separate artists into two groups; those artists that chose to create propaganda for the government, pharmaceutical/medical Industry and those artists who created art that protested, satirized or simply expressed weariness and dread of masking, lockdowns etc.

To make things easier for art historians, I’ve compiled and present here, a list of artists I admire, who created artwork expressing a personal ambivalence, disdain or something stronger for the official gov/pharma/media narrative. I’ve attached a screenshot example of their work. As much as possible I’ve included a Twitter time stamp showing that they created their work during the critical years of 2020-2022. If I missed any artists, please let me know in the comment section.

First example has to be British cartoonist Bob Moran. Moran did many awesome cartoons on the subject, but this recent cartoon sums up the dystopian world we live in… and hopefully, the way out. Find Bob Moran on Twitter and Instagram.

Next up is Jordan Henderson. Jordan has a keen eye for the vernacular which gives his paintings an eerie, nightmarish quality. His images were shared on social media early in the Plandemic. He’s on Twitter and Instagram.

“Just An Artist Questioning” is a very good, very prolific cartoonist from Australia (I think). On Twitter and Instagram.

Cartoonist and illustrator legend Danny Hellman did some awesome satirical takes on Covidian lunacy for publication The Shadow. Find Danny on Twitter and Instagram.

Almost forgot Savage Memes by JimBob: madebyjimbob.com

Cartoonist Ben Garrison has done a lot of bizarre, awesome cartoons. Find him on Instagram.

My wife Roberta Avidor who helped me keep it together the last three years. Roberta did several paintings about the subject, focusing on the depressing, demoralizing effects of the lockdowns and mandates. Find Roberta on Instagram.

Last is my small contribution to the genre… and you can find me here and Twitter.

UPDATE: I’m adding Lee Simpson to the list. H/T Nevermore Media.
