DETTAGLIO 'ONE...AND MORE...' 1
Pittura, Politico/Sociale, Acrilico, 50x40cm
Notes on artwork:
...One of the most deplorable developments in recent years has been the increasing use of young children as soldiers ...For centuries children have been involved in military campaigns A child might have been able to wield a sword or a machete but was no match for a similarly armed adult. However, a child with an assault rifle, a Soviet-made AK-47 or an American M-16, is a fearsome match for anyone. These weapons are very simple to use. The AK-47 can be stripped and reassembled by a child of 10. The rifles have also become much cheaper and more widely available—having few moving parts they are extremely durable and have steadily accumulated in war zones......
