Every Image Has A Story -  “No left wing, No right wing”

If you’ve been to Buenos Aires then you know that the city has an incredible history for political stencils.  The image above is one that we thought was quite clever.  It’s of Juan Peron. The text says “No left wing, No right wing”.  The line represents Paron’s political view of a third party between capitalism and socialism. 

But the dotted lines for the hands give the image a double meaning, as after Paron died his grave was robbed and his hands were stolen.

“No left wing, No right wing”
