Rebel with a Cause

Fernando Botero has used his art to speak out against injustice for decades. The TMA celebrates the figurative artist—who has a slew of massive sculptures in major cities across the world—by addressing his thematic quest for human rights with the documentary Botero: The Rebel on Friday, March 18. If the name sounds familiar, but it’s still not clicking, Botero gained considerable attention for his 2005 Abu Ghraib series, speaking out against prisoner treatment during the Iraq War. Free. 7:30pm. 2445 Monroe St. 419-255-8000. www.toledomuseum.org
