Good ,non literary , art expresses that which can't be written .But it is all back to the subjective , there seems little appreciation of possible horrors associated with monuments .Last night , Newsnight had a piece on Ugandan child sacrifices by "witchdoctors /shaman" or whatever you want to call them . How many sites that produce positive "vibes " for the contemporary visitor were witnesses to the same ? All the major battle fields pre 19 th C make ideal visual accompaniment to Lambert's "cow pat " music . Sorry a wee bit pseuds cornerish .
