Of course it also begs the questions
(1) is it art? School kids can make helium filled shapes. I would say it is not art.
(2) even if it is art, how much did it cost the taxpayer (or City of Perth ratepayers)
(3) if it cost ordinary people money, can they demand their money back as a dope made something that can blow away, despite the fact he was commissioned to make it for a windy city and situate it in a massive park next to the river (duh!)
Hundreds of thousands?
again, my whine in another thread about massive amounts of money funding artyfarty rubbish that only 1% of the population appreciate........... when we need flood relief, hospitals, aircon for classrooms in 40deg heat....... need I go on.
And the hundreds of thousands of bucks blew away.
If private enterprise ran like Govt (incl local Govt) they'd last 5 minutes.
