A fish? In a truck?

I know that this doesn't hold much photographic interest, but I really need to comment.
We have a wonderful annual art program here in Waco. The Cultural Art Fest is every fall and brings out artists and artisans from all over the south and west United States. Part of this festival is a sculpture competition, the winners of which have their work on display all over downtown Waco for the coming year. Some of these sculptures are wonderful, others a bit suspect. I have to question our local arbiters of art when I see work like this on display.
Now, I know I can be opinionated and up front with my taste in art, so I’ll try to tone it down a little. In my opinion, this is terrible. I’m completely missing the vision or the statement in this presentation. If you are the artist and reading this, please feel free to e-mail me a let me know what I am missing. I would love to appreciate this as some do, but cannot find the ability right now. |

When I showed this one to Zoe and Phillip they said, "That looks like Tow-Mater from Cars! and he caught a REALLY big fish!"
I have to tell you the more photos you share flaunting the attractions of Waco, I find myself tempted to visit, even if just for the novelty of it...
In terms of art I agree with you—this is right up there with the guy who uses a jet engine to splatter paint on a canvas and calls it art. But the kids LOVE it so I guess that's all that matters?
