My first critique of the sculptures is something everybody has been saying that have seen it ‘There is too much crap in that space and it just looks like the lawn sculpture garden on Cleveland Avenue’. Besides the overcrowding I would have done one of two things with the sculptures. The pieces themselves are beautiful and I think they will withstand the rigors of SD weather (I have a wait an see on that one, glass doesn’t do well in hail and subzero temps). I would have either spaced out the existing sculptures more or I would have made the bases narrower to make more space between the pieces. It goes back to the overcrowding in that space and it looks like the space between the pieces was compromised. But hey when you hire Mark Cotter’s kid with a lawnmower to prepare the site, what do you expect? I even saw them hauling in a bunch of trees today.
Speaking of city projects, looks like the ice ribbon is finally getting poured.
OMG it’s a neon Stonehenge. Art has many interpretations. This one is obnoxious. When there’s enough graffiti, take it to the Noem gravel pit for a shotguns firing squad.
This is merely a subconscious modern attempt at Stonehenge. Perhaps, instead, they should have stood a bunch of old Cadillacs on their trunk ends and called it ‘Amarillo Revisited.’ AND, calling it ‘Chicken Ranch’ instead of Cadillac Ranch might have drawn even more attention, too. But they were obivously too chicken for that.
