Because some of you inquired about 'yarn bombing', here is a section of the sculpture "Michael" at One City Center after it was 'attacked' Thursday night. This piece of public art, by sculptor John Raimondi, has been embroiled in controversy since it landed in Portland in May of 1975. More art for art sake.
By "attached" do you mean that it was vandalized?
ReplyDeleteWell Kate, you tell me. Attacked or not?????????????

I found "yarn bombing" on another blog and had to look it up. Seems like a rather odd kind of celebration; I suppose I'm missing something.
ReplyDeleteIt could have been a lot worse!!
ReplyDeleteNever heard of yarn bombing. In this case, it may be a good thing. What is that so-called sculpture?
ReplyDeleteI like the colors and texture of this different sculpture!

It makes me laff. . but I also think: someone has a lot of time on his/her hands . . . (not you, Birdman)
ReplyDeleteInteresting...
ReplyDeleteIt's vibrant. I'd like to know the story of what happened.
ReplyDeleteI hope it comes of easily for dusting.
ReplyDeleteI like this yarn bombing thing and in this case, I think it helped the piece of art.
