[lit-ideas] Re: Art and the Wall

Beautiful art is in the eye of the beholder.  Diego Rivera's art was not 
beautiful to Rockefeller.  I personally think "art" on building walls looks 
like graffiti.

These are breathtaking.  The one which astonishes me most is #8.  I am stunned 
by the indomitable human spirit and lust for beauty and hope in the face of the 
most ugly and resigned.   There will be, I hope, a coffee table book of all the 
Wall Paintings....
