Would You Put This Fountain In Front Yard ?

[waretrop]

Look at it this way...I have seen many beautiful statues like that little boy and many many tacky gardens too....Gardens that embarrassed me...

I wouldn't put him in the front yard. You do have neighbors and you are too kind of a man to offend anyone. Put him in your garden where you and friends can enjoy him and color the water yellow.

@baymule THAT IS FUNNY FOR SURE....

& attach a fart machine. Who knows what else....yep, art all right.

Call me repressed but when you look into many "artists" they were borderline pervs-some way over the border......

This statue is not all that but art it isn't. It's a concrete statue. If the boy had clothes so you couldn't see the body, would it still be art? I'd bet the boy didn't say to himself, roof is on fire, I must get naked and go pee on fire...... with clothes, just another concrete statue.

If it was a concrete statue of a naked me pissing into a fountain, would you consider it art? (Think fat, old man with pot belly and chicken legs-as my wife calls them)

Seedcorn, I'm shocked! You have bellyached about Nyboy and Major and I polluting your mind with images you don't want in there, and now you go and do this to us....for shame! I will now have to go out and hose my brain off.
Moms gonna hear about this one little brother....

I agree, though....seems like it's art if the statue is naked but if clothed, not so much. I've never found statues of naked humans to be all that appealing, no more than I find them appealing if seen in real life. There's really no need for the nudity other than for shock value and, for some strange reason, that seems to be enough to get folks to call things "art".

From what I can tell, all those poor Roman fellas seemed seriously underdeveloped and I can't imagine why they'd want to flaunt that and then make it into an object that would be in public view. I can't see a thing to be proud of there.

It's gotta be Art, or maybe it's Rich!!!!


THANX DICK

@waretrop I love your lady reminds me of ZZTOP she got legs. I think I am going to leave him in woods where just friends can enjoy him. I do have lion fountain I might put in front yard

 

[thistlebloom]

I like the lion. That color appeals to my sense of art more too.

There's a lot of art in that word you know Seed.
