'Cold War Headstone': Devised, defined and implemented within the great bureaucratic centers of our world in times gone-by, this was a philosophic way of thought and doing as pathway through an era. Unfortunately, there are far to many still pulling the strings of power in our world retaining such a 'times gone-by'' mind set. The people politic of America is such that the mantra most oft heard in the run-up to the 2008 elections is 'we need change'. If as a people, this is a sincere cry than we should burry this puppy and as is typical in these centers of power, build a monument to the cold war (in some way this is such a visual-conceptual proposal), and get on with the 21st century. Not to do so represent risks of untold consequence within society at large. Until then, this may be the largest, most destructive impediment to societal development at the outset of this new century. This is a work using the gable of the Russell Senate Office Building, the sky and plant life in Washington, DC as visual propellent to this idea.

All materials, techniques and pigments used in producing this print are archivally in line with museum protocols. Print is frontally titled and signed with copyright. Should you wish a different size or possibly a Giclee print (printed on a heavy watercolor paper substrate such as Arches) we may come to a reasonable pricing agreement. All measurments are from the image edges and do not include the generous griping border. Each print also include instructions for care and if followed will extend print-life so as to provide 100+ years of viewing pleasure. Buyer will pick-up actual shipping and insurance. By your purchase of this work you agree to abide by all copyright statutes as pertain to this work.
