15 Sculptures You (probably) Didn’t Know Existed
A fork in a lake. A shark in a roof. A portrait hidden inside fifty steel columns. These sixteen sculptures use cliffs, shadows, water, buildings, light, and even the viewer’s position as part of the work. Some are permanent landmarks; others travel or were created as temporary installations. 🎶 “Mélodie oubliée” — By Luo Li Rong In this workshop photo, Luo Li Rong uses a torch on the bronze surface of Mélodie oubliée. The finished work is 205 cm tall and weighs 250 kg, […] -

🧵 1/2
Here is my "Unpopular on Mastodon" toot of the day.
I dislike Banksy.
Although I am often (not always) in sympathy with the messages his work conveys, these are often presented in a form that is dull, hectoring, or disagreeably sentimental -- what we might term radical twee.
The populist "you know what you like and it's not that museum stuff" current that has marked his career is uncomfortably close to the right wing cultural politics of which he imagines himself a leading opponent.
I also dislike graffiti in general. This Jonathan Jones article from a decade ago remains on point:
Please don't tell me that this symptom of urban blight is somehow "progressive". Instead of drooling over Robin Gunnigham's private organization...

Another edit of the Schwarzenegger statue that I previously submitted for #FotoVorschlag (“Prachtkerl” / fine specimen, hunk).
I just remembered that Arnold was nicknamed “the Austrian Oak,” so I thought this would be fitting for #ThickTrunkTuesday as well. In his bodybuilding days he did, indeed, have a thick trunk.😁

A quotation from George Orwell
Artists don’t so much object to aesthetic discipline. Architects will design theatres or churches equally readily, writers will switch from the three-volume novel to the one-volume, or from the play to the film, according to the demand. But the point is that this is a political age. A writer inevitably writes — and less directly this applies to all the arts — about contemporary events, and his impulse is to tell what he believes to be the truth. But no government, no big organization, will pay for the truth. To take a crude example: can you imagine the British Government commissioning E. M. Forster to write A Passage to India? He could only write it because he was not dependent on State aid.
George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1944-10-13), “As I Please” column, Tribune NewspaperMore about this quote: wist.info/orwell-george/42525/

This sounds like a sweep to me. Why do these landowners think it’s safe to build profit generating housing (apartments) on toxic land?
