Petroglyph, 1935/1942
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph on paper created by the American artist Lala Eve Rivol during the 1930s or 1940s. This striking artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Native American rock art and the enduring influence of the natural world on human creativity. Rivol's Petroglyph masterfully captures the essence of ancient petroglyphs, those enigmatic rock carvings left behind by early human civilizations. The artwork features a series of stylized animal motifs, including a bison, a bear, and a human figure, all interconnected in a dynamic and intriguing composition. The use of bold colors and strong lines adds depth and texture to the piece, making it a vibrant and engaging representation of the past. Petroglyph was created during a pivotal period in American history, the Great Depression, when the federal government initiated various programs to provide employment opportunities and stimulate the economy. Rivol's artwork is a product of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and the Index of American Design, which aimed to document and promote American art and culture. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is home to this significant artwork, which serves as an important reminder of the diverse artistic traditions that have shaped the United States. Petroglyph's political and cultural significance extends beyond its aesthetic value, as it represents the ongoing dialogue between the past and the present, and the enduring connection between humans and the natural world. Through her masterful use of color, design, and symbolism, Lala Eve Rivol invites viewers to explore the depths of human creativity and the richness of Native American heritage. Petroglyph is a must-see artwork for anyone interested in American art, Native American culture, or the power of art to bridge the gap between past and present.
