{"product_id":"leunig-michael-untitled-further-pro-18210","title":"Michael Leunig 'Untitled (Further Proof That Modern Education is Impotent)'","description":"\u003cp\u003eMichael Leunig was an iconic Australian cartoonist, writer, painter, philosopher and poet, best known for his cartoons published in the Sydney Morning Herald and Age newspapers over 55 years. Spanning the political, cultural and philosophical, his visual world was one of whimsy, wit and a deep humanity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this raucous original drawing, Leunig turns his gaze toward modern education, storyboarding a wicked encounter between student and teacher. The student, professing a case of randiness, launches herself onto the teacher who can only crumple in embarrassment. Totally provocative, ‘Untitled (Further Proof That Modern Education is Impotent)’ is a send-up of the shifting power dynamics in contemporary education, satirising the obligation teachers can feel to make their students feel heard, special and good, no matter the reality. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs special as it is rare, ‘Untitled (Further Proof That Modern Education is Impotent)’ is a piquant find for admirers of Leunig and collectors of political art. It is recognisably by the artist and hand-signed by Leunig himself.
