Remember a few months back that the city council was worried that someone might steal the 2.5 tonne Henry Moore statue that sits at the edge of the Botanic Gardens near Salamanca Road?
I mean, since they planted the idea the Wellingtonista crew did band together & steal it for our foyer one night. But in the morning we regretted it & snuck it back before anyone noticed.
Anyway, I’m not sure what is happening here… either the council has decided to disguise the statue from prospective thieves…. Or it represents a new work of art in itself. Perhaps by Christo?


As found on Stuff...
it did look good in the foyer, but.
now, it may just be me, but doesn't this seem like some sort of elaborate scheme a la Ocean's Eleven?
Has anyone actually eyeballed the sculpture since it's gone under wraps?
I mean, I find it easy to imagine, after a couple of weeks, a suspicious council worker pulls down the shed to discover that...
horror! the sculpture - gone! nothing but a tunnel in the ground leading to a garage slightly further down the hill, from whence the cunning thieves have loaded up their booty far from prying eyes.

Cos I did that whole taking one for the team in that stairwell with Blumsky already...
And look, it's clear I haven't mastered replying to the right message. Just bear with me....
ewww. michael douglas. consider that particular 'duty' outside of your other zeta-jones job description.
Wait... are you saying you slept with Blumsky?
Ermm... don't tell anyone, but isn't that EXACTLY what we planned to do when they first put in the camera?
"The shed would protect the bronze while work was done"
Er yes, bronze is very susceptible to damage like that.
Didn't Blumsky end up with a black eye from that?
What did you do to him Jo.
