"Glances of Resistance" began as a covert Berlin exhibition by exiled Nicaraguan artists, documenting authoritarian violence through defiant art. As Nicaragua's regime intensified repression—banning performances, exiling creators, and dismantling civil society—art became both target and weapon. From torn-down “Trees of Life” to underground collectives, this resistance preserves truth where the state enforces silence. Global solidarity is now vital to protect Nicaragua’s vanishing creative voice.
