Vandalizable Monuments by Jose Carlos Martinat...

Found this whilst doing some artist research. Thought it was cool. Little research can be found about it however.


sculpture made of 11 models of buildings, structures or symbols of institutions of power in Lima

Star (symbol of his political party) done by president of Peru Alan Garcia







I like the way the artist does not know what the final outcome will be.It shows freedom. This links to Crawford

As Crawford (1991, p.27) states,

"Art does not exist in a vacuum. Its origins and its acceptance or rejection are intimately tied to other aspects of society and culture."
