From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Joe Bonham Project is named after the fictional protagonist of Dalton Trumbo's 1939 anti-war novel Johnny Got His Gun.[1] Its purpose is to portray the reality of war to the public with art that portrays the human consequences of combat. Founded by war artist Michael D. Fay,[2] the organisation holds exhibitions to introduce the public to artistic representations of war and the aftermath of war.[3][4]
The project distances itself from politics, preferring instead to be seen as apolitical "Witness Art".[5]
