Dueling with sculpture

Personally I thought “fearless girl” was kind of cool. The sculptor who made the Wall Street bull did not agree. 😀

I looked for a decent picture of the pissing dog. To me it just looks like a lump of something, but I guess it’s supposed to be a pug. And how does this work, anyway? If anybody can just put up a statue of anything anywhere he wants and it has to stay there, NYC is a more laissez-faire place than I thought it was. Seems like they’d be up to their collective armpits in lousy statues by now.

Reminds me of the kerfuffle over the “three soldiers” statue somebody put up near the Vietnam Memorial Wall. As I recall the person who designed the wall had a hissy fit over that, too. But I thought it was an improvement. ‘Course, I don’t know anything about art.

    I’ve always thought “Fearless Girl” should more accurately be called “Stupid Girl”. If I saw a half-ton of angry pot-roast glaring at me, the last thing I’d do is stand defiantly in front of it.
