Rhetoric Pics

I went to two places in order to gather pictures. Initially I had intended to go down to the 71st street exit to photograph the intech sculpture which tries to represent the sophistication of the entire corporate structure in a single piece of art. However, time did not allow this and I ended up only going to two different sites. However, each was rich in rhetoric, and I took around 30 pictures total. The first place I visited was Clay Terrace, a place infamous for its over-the-top fake sophistication. I found many different examples of this rhetoric, with "classy" wooden fences enclosing the entire area and old-timey lampposts which just screamed sophistication. Overall, it was perfect for my purposes and I found many perfect examples. I next went to the Carmel Arts District, another place destined to be filled with rhetoric because the entire area was forced to be artsy, designated by the city to be the arts district. It did not become the arts district after it was deemed an artful place in town, but was rather forced to become carmel's epitome of art. This being so, it would have some rather obvious, forced attempts at art. I photographed the sculptures paid for by the city and the arches created solely for the purpose of designating when someone enters the arts district.
