Busselton Bronze

Well wouldn’t you know, Busso is planning on some boardwalk artistry, and total shock, have opted for – yes, figurative life sized bronzes. And Greg James, the man who was able to drain all life and interest out of Bon Scott, with his infamous “shortarse next to a fish and chips shop” is the man chosen. C’mon Greg, why couldn’t you propose something good, something wild, something wonderful? Is it because you don’t have it in you, or because you wouldn’t have got the gig if you had put up anything that wasn’t snoreworthy life sized figurative bronzes? Perhaps it’s a bit of both as we have discussed with other pieces? To further insult the public of Western Australia, they are asking for donations to turn these manky maquettes into reality. Please don’t give any money to this unworthy project. If they are putting up a fund to bring out say Fernando Botero to do the Busso Boardwalk, (and wouldn’t he do a fantastic Troy and Adele?) then yes. Greg James or the other boremasters The Smiths, no. C’mon, even Busselton doesn’t deserve this. FFS there’s a man with a fucking barrel.bronze

    Everyone bangs on about Herbert Hoover living in Kalgoorlie, but we all forget that Abraham Lincoln was one of the founding fathers of Busselton. Apparently.

    I quite like the perspex box idea. Not that fussed about the rest.
