Does the Pavilion and SculptureWalk realize this is a Knockoff of the Dutch Boy logo?

People’s choice award, a house paint logo image. Maybe I should submit an Aunt Jamima or Pillsbury Dough Boy sculpture?

I often chuckle about the people who make the public art selections in this (boom)town.

Remember this People’s Choice winner from Sculpture Walk 2014 (created by Lee Leuning and Sherri Treeby)? It will soon have a new home in the Washington Pavilion’s main lobby as you walk up to the VAC. Thank you City of Sioux Falls – Municipal Government and SculptureWalk!

There is a sucker born everyday, and probably 2 or 3 in Sioux Falls. I also find the irony of the ‘Dutch Boy’ (Girl? Boy? Transgender?) actually painting a REAL painting and not a house to be funny. Do you think that Lee Leuning and Sherri Treeby (the artists) are having a little joke with us? Nah. They are not that clever.

Banksy does it again – Dismaland

disma-8

I find this funny for several reasons. First off, I can’t stand Disney, but Banksy isn’t the first artist to take a stab at the giant. One of my favorite cartoonists, Ed ‘Big Daddy’ Roth created ‘Rat Fink’ on a Diner napkin in retaliation of Disney Land and Mickey Mouse way back in the 1950’s. Rat Fink was the Anti-Mickey, Anti-Establishment character.
