A sister of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in Los Angeles, Sister Mary Corita served as both an educator and an activist at the Immaculate Heart College, where she was head of the art department. In 1968, she moved to Boston to devote her life exclusively to making art. While her earliest pieces are religious, starting in the 1960s her work took a secular, activist turn, interspersing images from the civil rights movement and antiwar protests with politically charged slogans.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46596993843359,"sku":"23645","price":2500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/Kent_Corita.CrazyEnough-SignedSilkscreenPrintB.jpg?v=1724171393","url":"https:\/\/www.schubertiademusic.com\/products\/23645-kent-corita-crazy-enough-signed-silkscreen-print","provider":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
