Dynamic Round Dragon
Animals from across the globe invade New York City!!! Well, not quite. Actually, renowned Taiwanese artist Hung Yi, brings his artistry to the heart of New York City’s Garment District with his lively menagerie of eleven phantasmagoric sculptured animals which bring good luck and draw upon traditional Chinese culture and religion, as well as the artist’s own experiences and imagination. Using traditional motifs and symbols (as well as some words in English) Hung Yi’s brightly colored sculptures bring life to the streets of downtown Manhattan. Enter, the Fancy Animal Carnival!
Brought to NYC in September the sculptures were supposed to be here until April 15th, however, two days following their last day they were still seen on the streets. Perhaps, they still have work to do in bringing good luck and fortune to New Yorkers and all visitors to the city. I certainly hope so!
