This RUN from Adam Caldwell will go onsale on May 4, 2012 at 12:24 pm marking the 42nd anniversary of the 1970 Kent State Shootings where 4 protestors were shot and killed by riot police.
"The piece is a combination of photos of a performance art piece and a 1960's civil rights protest. It had drawn a negative reaction from members of the LAPD during the art exhibition as they were kicking out the late patrons. It is based on a fragment of the T.S. Eliot poem "The Wasteland" I was painting this for a series of images involving images of protest from current and 1960's photographs." - Adam Caldwell
The Wasteland by T.S. Eliot
A current under sea
Picked his bones in whispers. As he rose and fell
He passes the stages of his age and youth
Entering the whirlpool.
This RUN will be hand-embellished by Adam Caldwell and will be limited to 25 prints.
