Hello,
There is a new post on Dean's World. You can read it at:
http://www.deanesmay.com/posts/1157341753.shtml
It begins:
Most people tolerate bad art in public spaces
because they think they have to. But Dubliners
strike back at bad art whenever they can. The
Spire of Dublin, which was built to replace the
Nelson Pillar, which IRA art critics bombed in
1996, is nicknamed the "Stiletto in the Ghetto".
It's also the "the Rod to God", the "Erection at
the Intersection," and the "Stiffy by the Liffey."
This buxom statue of Molly Malone, which Dubliners
criticize for nearly bursting loose from her dress,
is called the "Tart with the Cart." <img
