[QUOTE=Whomobile;42476140]Haha I live there, Perth has it's fair share of sculptures, most of them OK.
The problem with this piece is that the effect doesn't work unless your in the right spot, so lots of local people don't even know what the piece is about.[/QUOTE]
wait, that thing is meant to be a fucking triangle? every time I drove past it I thought it was just another obscure art piece like the countless others we have (please don't make me bring out the cactus sculptures)

Where did Calgary get the money is what i'm wondering.[/QUOTE]
All of the big oil companies in Canada have their head offices in Calgary. You tell me.

It's actually pretty interesting, the panels move about randomly and I think it might have some lasers in it.
[QUOTE=Rangergxi;42471546]Its a circle. I don't care about what it could mean artistically at that price.[/QUOTE]
Somebody does.
Besides, the cash that went toward this wasn't stolen from the "give food to the orphans" wallet or anything. This was cash that was only ever going to go toward public art.
