Polish illustrator Pawel Kuczynski's grim and sharply satirical works, which we've featured before here, are a perfect example of art that speaks volumes. Kuczynski's images are so powerful because they force us to face some of the worst realities of our times. It's beautiful – not in a flowers-and-sunlight kind of way, but in a brutally truthful way. He addresses war, political manipulation and hypocrisy, environmental damage, economic disparity and many other ills facing mankind today.
