WHAT’S TRENDING
Tuesday, April 24, 6:28 pm
London is hosting the upcoming Summer Olympics, and in preparation,
officials are commissioning artworks in honor of the event, such as this
one by artist Jeremy Deller: a full-scale, inflatable replica of iconic
British monument, Stonehenge. The bouncy, interactive sculpture, titled
"Sacrilege," is meant to express the English sense of humor, as well as
its considerable history. Watching the stones rise from the ground with
a little help from an air compressor is remarkable, as are the kids and
giddy grown-ups leaping about the reproduced ancient ruins. Here's
hoping the charming artwork will get mass produced, so we can all
contemplate the mysterious meaning of Stonehenge while enjoying a
frolic.
