Violinist Wuilly Arteaga, center, performs with a group of musicians to give a free concert in Caracas, Venezuela, Sunday, June 4, 2017. Protesters began to take notice of Arteaga after another violinist was killed when he was struck by a tear gas canister about a month into the protest movement. Arteaga played at the fellow musician’s funeral and has been a fixture of the near-daily protests ever since, frequently hunkering down in the dangerous middle ground between protester barricades and a line of heavily-armed riot police.
