“Wallis’s seagoing vessels are at the mercy of the waves. … They toss, swerve about, and plunge more than enough to bring a gulp to the throat.” So Michael Glover writes of maritime artist Alfred Wallis in this weekend’s issue. These words could describe the instability that has become a daily condition, and has caught in its tide both democracy and lives. They evoke Melville’s remark in Moby Dick: “Already we are boldly launched upon the deep; but soon we shall be lost in its unshared, harborless immensities.”Hyperallergic continues to be a guiding independent voice.
