      In March 2020, the World Health Organization classified the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak as a pandemic. According to data from the WHO Coronavirus (COVID-19) Dashboard (April 12, 2021), approximately 137,000,000 confirmed cas- es of COVID-19, including approximately 2,930,000 confirmed deaths, have been documented in 223 countries. Actual numbers of cases and deaths are larger because of challenges with testing and deter- mining causes of death.

      The UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Or- ganization (UNESCO) notes that the culture sector, which includes more than 30 million people glob- ally, has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandem- ic. Nonetheless, artists everywhere have respond- ed to the pandemic; many are not only depicting their experiences and circumstances but are also promoting public health practices that can aid in reducing the spread of COVID-19, such as washing hands and wearing masks.
