Description
Seeds of illusion, Los Angeles, 1990, 1448 North Alvarado Street (at Glendale Boulevard), Echo Park. TV sets thrashing in turbulent waters, meant to indicate the tense dynamic between nature and technology. On a side panel, a poor woman searches among the TVs for a sign of hope. Acrylic, 9' x 27' (each of three panels), by Guillermo Bert. Sponsored by SPARC. -- Dunitz, Street gallery, p. 106, #25.
