| John Hart
For a century now artists have been accustomed to pushing outward the boundaries of what's called art, delighting in the squeals of people whose expectations are violated. But the old fun is gone. the conservatives, by and large, have given up the game. Say Farallon and I hear an instant music, a kind of animal ocean-noise, built mainly of gull cries and sea lion barkings. Every gull is saying Mine! Mine! Mine!, but the lions sometimes seem to be sounding off for the sheer pleasure of it. Southeast Farallon will cure you of any notion of nature as pastoral. It's serious, deadly, full-time business here, none of it laid on for our amusement. That such a place should nonetheless be beautiful to us is one of the mysteries of evolution. |
