Description
Endangered species, 1990, 801 Ocean Front Walk (at Park Avenue), bottom center. The theme is how the misuse of technology has impacted elderly and families. Portrayed are an old man and an old woman representing the elderly, a family of five, representing the families that could no longer afford to live in Venice. The black woman in the foreground represents mother earth, for women have suffered most from our greedy society -- interpretation by artist Emily Winters, fax dated November 12, 2011.
