WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Paul Ryan said Thursday he will continue to speak out in defense of conservative principles, despite a warning from Donald Trump that Republican congressional leaders should "be quiet."
GOP leaders "have to get a lot tougher and be quiet. Just please be quiet, don't talk….we have to have our Republicans either stick together or let me just do it by myself. I'll do very well," the presumptive Republican presidential nominee said Wednesday.
Two monumental baby-head sculptures adorn Boston's linked landscape as they rest on the Fenway entrance lawn of the Museum of Fine Arts. Presiding over the Fenway section of Fredrick Law Olmsted's metaphorical emerald necklace, the baby heads' ephemeral, innocent countenances encourage full-spectrum consideration of potential role-reversal relationships between parent and child, teacher and student, servant and master. Their overwhelming presence symbolically links our humanity, defying gender, language, and religion while transcending time.
Fascinated by his four grandchildren, Antonio Lopez Garcia of Madrid cast the allegorical baby-head bronzes, Day and Night, into artistically dense, composite statements of monumental ideal. The complimentary figures capture a resemblance to those he loved so completely in their fleeting baby days. In a book written by Cheryl Brutvan to enhance a 2008 MFA retrospective of the works of Garcia, the former Head of the Contemporary Art Department said of the baby heads, " the relationship between sculpture and viewer becomes inverted, as the latter goes from being dominate to being dominated."
