How'd you like to come into the office some morning and open your blinds to see this guy peering in at you? Artist Lawrence Argent made this huge blue bear for the Denver Convention Center. There are links to a short video of the installation at the bottom of this article. (There was a longer video presented at Maker Faire in 2006 - wish I'd seen it!)

Go to www.thebigbluebeardenver.com and you can buy exact replicas
of the 40ft blue bear. Ok, they are not 40ft but very cool.
I love the key chains too!
