Absolutely, Ljuke, and one of my favourite antique gifs. And although I generally can’t stand graffiti of any description, I don’t mind this.

Gaahh! I hate the cow parade. It strikes me as the very antithesis of art – taking an existing corporate branding idea, removing it from any context, and replicating it in every ‘bohemian’ burg in the fucking world.
Is it art, Mez?
LikeLike
deftly avoiding the obvious rant against corporatised art events, Mez boldy joins the fray…
It is not art but, they (the cow sculptures) are. The prefab casts were given to a variety of people (some of who are artists) with a request that they trick them up for public display (no, not art yet). The participants address the cow casts in their studio spaces (art has not necessarily happened yet). The cast cow sculptures are put into paddocks in the Maggot Creek region. People stop to look at them – now they are art.

So, if no one looks, it’s not art? I wonder if I could arrange that.

So if cow art sits in the forrest and no body sees it, is it really cow art? .

“So when you come across life-sized cow sculptures that have been covered in mirrors or gumdrops, cows that have been painted with elaborate themes or transformed into something else entirely, you can’t help but stop and think about what it means. All your preconceived ideas go out the window”. Hmmm.

It’s a worry.
Just another to add to the worries about the spiens bit of the species description.
Just like the “oompa” reference by DFOC which mentions penguins cavorting on Arctic ice.
Ignorance knows no bounds in the pursuit of a dollar or three.

check out the look on the face of the penguin sidling around the rump. Where exactly is he going with that flipper?

It’s really quite simple, the horse ate the penguins.
It’s a little known fact but there are carninvorous horses in the Antartic.
