“The big rocket drawings… Chris did a series of Prisma pencil drawings with the intention of blowing up—well, not blowing up—that’s wrong. Enlarging the missiles to be the full size they are in reality, and this is the first gallery that’s had ceilings high enough to hang them. So he’s very excited about showing them, and so am I.”

Since the end of 2001, it is almost daily that we hear news reports of bombs being dropped, missiles being fired, and areas being targeted by the United States military. With the numbers of missiles so high and so frequent it is difficult for anyone to comprehend their impact, both financially and in scale. The size and presence alone of these missiles is daunting and intimidating, with some missiles as tall as 15 feet (4.5m). The price is just as overwhelming, with some missiles, like the Tomahawk, costing over $1.5 million each.
