Undertoad Monday Mar 28 01:17 PM3/28/2005: Massive ice sculpture
"Tête de singe sculptée dans la glace illuminée durant un gala de danse moderne de Robert Wilson sur le site d'une exposition à Nagakute," says the official caption at Yahoo! France, which seems to indicate that this massive ice sculpture was part of a reception for the modern dance of Robert Wilson?
Ah spectacle.
jaguar Monday Mar 28 02:23 PMwhat the heck is Nagakute, I can understand the rest easily enough.
lookout123 Monday Mar 28 03:52 PMall i can think is "Dr Zaius, Dr Zaius!" as sung by the Simpson's.
capnhowdy Monday Mar 28 04:43 PMVery beautiful.
I wonder how big it really is. If the houses and things in the background are real, this thing is enormous.
Where did the flourescent fishy go in the second image?
Happy Monkey Monday Mar 28 04:54 PMI'd guess the fish is a boat.
Trilby Monday Mar 28 05:03 PMDr. Zaius made a monkey out of me.

This is part of EXPO 2005 Aichi, Japan. The sculpture reminds me of the National Geographic pictures of the snow monkeys sitting in the hot springs.
Sweets Tuesday Mar 29 05:27 AMBruce, thats what I thought as well. I remember seeing the shows about those. They are some smart monkeys!
Very creative with the sculpture. I love it. I wonder how long it took to make.
lumberjim Tuesday Mar 29 06:41 AMif you look closely, you can see the silhouette of an outboard motor against the bottom left of the fish, capnhowdy.

Thanks, LJ. Now that I see that, it really puts things in perspective; sizewise.
Now I can't decide which one I like best - the monkey or the boat.
