October 25, 2006: House on museum
Neatorama notices this item I'd previously picked up on Ananova.
|
A house has been 'dropped upside down' on the roof of the Viennese Museum of Modern Art. The art project, entitled House-Attack by top local sculptor Erwin Wurm, is supposed to look as if the house has fallen out of the sky and landed on the famous museum in the centre of the Austrian capital. It actually took two cranes to put the huge sculpture into place, which is complete with a red roof, window boxes and a TV antenna. |
|
The artist said his work was a statement against over-development. Wurm said: "There are hundreds of thousands of houses and they are spreading like a plague, like a cancer across our land." |

Weren't there killer houses, on Monty Python, that hopped around eating people, or something?

How do people come up with these ideas? And, more importantly, how do they get other people to pay them for it?

If you must know, someone dropped a house on my sister.
Show some respect, people.

I think it makes the museum look as though it has grown a head, ala Transformers, and is now preparing to squash the city flat in its righteous indignation.

What? Those lawns in Vegas and Tucson are wonderful. It gives the residents a taste of nostalgia for the allergies and asthma(sp) they left back east.
