are on that track.
Mark SubletteHOST
And I do see artists that have this sense of, I'm not there, I haven't made it, in the sense of, I can be better, right? I saw Ed Mell do that.
Mark SubletteHOST
I mean, I watched him do it.
Mark SubletteHOST
I mean, he's like a great artist, but he was like, no, I just, I gotta push it, you know.
Michael ClawsonGUEST
Like, Ed, it was really important for Ed, now that he's painted this picture, he had copies of it made to give to every kid, to every child.
Michael ClawsonGUEST
And so everyone got a little, uh, Ed Mell print, uh, specifically [laughs] from Ed.
Michael ClawsonGUEST
And, uh-
Adolfo CastilloHOST
Oh, wow
Keisha TurleyGUEST
So coyotes visited, the javelinas visited and kind of disrupted his pieces.
Keisha TurleyGUEST
And so it's, it's really interesting to see kind of artists who are utilizing the landscape to create their work, um, in a very different way from, say, somebody like Ed Mell or Lon Megargie who pa- uh, who use, who use paint to depict the landscape.
Mark BrodyHOST
Is there a way, do you think, to sort of re-idealize this area? I mean, obviously, you know, in the early part of the 20th century, as you referenced, uh, when we were walking through the, the exhibition, you know, the goal was to get people to come here, to explore, to move to the West because most people hadn't seen it and certainly hadn't been here.
Mark BrodyHOST
So I wonder, like, is there a way to sort of re-idealize this place maybe in a more realistic way through this art?
