Do you suppose the day will come that we revere the bottom works of art the way we do the top? They say it was a means of communicating. Isn't the bottom a way of communicating also? I wonder, did the tribal leaders decry it as ruining the enviornment and arrest those they caught leaving thier mark on the wall?
I wonder if they threatened to cut off the thumbs of the ones who pained/drew the pics in the top photo. That's what the Mayor of Vegas wanted to do to anyone who spraypainted/graffiti in Vegas.
I guess I'd say that today we think we own the land and can depict how all public places look. There's not all that much difference, is there...just a different perspective. Great photos, by the way!
Just a few years...

ReplyDeleteWell...one is all authentic and native and stuff.

Am I right? Or am I right?
But, Lula, they are both a permanent record of who has been there, and what they were doing.
