Dubček
Surprised and pleased to see Dubček here. My immediate reaction was shouldn’t this be a statue of a Romanian Dubček? I don’t know who that would be. My next thought was, who would be an American equivalent? Really draw a … Weiterlesen

December 1989
It’s easier to see from the back, but those are shackles being burst from the upper pair of arms. I like this sculpture. It feels powerful, and worlds away from the idea of encouraging Americans to vote for Democratic Party … Weiterlesen

Madara Horseman
So if you asked me to name a world-famous symbol of the US, I’d say Statue of Liberty, or Empire State Building. England? Big Ben or Tower Bridge. France? That’s easy! Eiffel Tower. Germany? Brandenburg Gate. Bulgaria? … Bulgaria? What’s … Weiterlesen
