Does that writer/publication have some beef with that artist? That's pretty harsh for ART.
Holy shit, vulture real estate developers destroying classic architecture and erecting soulless mile-high intrusive garbage in it's place, no one ASKED for that either but we all have to suffer those eyesores.
No one asked for Jeff Koons either but there he is.

It’s just lazy. “Oh I did a bean. Let me do another bean somewhere else, but smaller.”

Also, fuck that guy for vanta black.

Have you never read criticism of bad art before? The guy makes valid points. This one is built like shit, it's covered in dirt, and it's not really accessible for viewing except from an awkward angle where you are below most of the sculpture.

You mean an outdoor public artwork is covered in dirt from being outside? No way! Burn it!

Read the article. It's got a cleaning crew. They just can't get it clean because it's not made as well as the one in Chicago.
