the bronzes are everywhere... in Singapore and in TV LAND!
# posted @ 11:14 AM 0 comments | add a commentAesthetic Grounds: has a fine story on a series of realistic lifesize bronze sculptures of television characters that are being placed around the US, as part of a series of donations by a cable tv channel. It's a chance for AG's Weiss to dig into the industry of realistic bronze casts... good fun. And the TV Land series makes Singapore's Tourism Board "pioneers" along the river seem pretty benign (and not without at least a hint of aesthetic merit...).
