Make:

the statement this is attempting to make is either extremely shallow and trivial, or extremely deep and beyond me. otherwise, it looks like it was more effort than it was worth.

still like it though. go figure.

I'd call this more of a prank than art. It needs a sign like "Courtesy seating" too.

Anytime someone says something like this "it still makes an interesting comment on the state of public art in the city" they should be required to elaborate on the statement they think it's making. Because it won't be making the same statement to everyone who looks at it.

I thought we were surrounded by art. I thought you all called it graffiti.

If it's like art that's supposed to make you think, then it worked.

I'd pondered how it could be a statement about public sevices that while exist, but aren't really accessible.

Maybe the reason there isn't more "public art" is because the public doesn't like it, and causes their agent to remove it.

The statement I think it makes about public art is "There is to much useless art around here, give us more park benches so I can sit down once in a while."

You guys are sure a bunch of drags. Since when does art need to have a meaning? Why can't it just be something fun/funny to look at? Not everybody is going to like it it but show me a piece of art that everybody digs.
