War gives inspiration to Gaza's artists

This image made available on Sunday, Sept. 7, 2014 by Palestinian artist Basel al-Maqosui, shows a collaboration of a famous painting by Spanish painter, Pablo Picasso, paired with a photograph taken by al-Maqosui of a woman carrying her child as she walks past damages after an Israeli Strike hit the Gaza Strip. The artist, a 42-year-old father of five, took advantage of the brief reprieves in the fighting to photograph some of the most devastated parts of Gaza. He then paired them with images of some of the world's most famous paintings by Monet, Cezanne and Picasso and posted them on social media.
