Juame Plensa's Spillover II
Updated 11/13/2015: A visitor to the area has aggressively promoted his blog claiming to have detected anti-Semitic words ("bad jew") in Plensa's random letter construction. Shorewood, Wi. village officials have announce they will have the statue "restored" by a local gallery (e.g. Plensa's stainless steel letters will be re-arranged apparently). This is hardly the first time that the viewer of a work of art has seen what they are predisposed to see, nor will it be the last. The Village of Shorewood should be ashamed. How many times and at what cost do they plan on rearranging those letters?
