The problem with Gov't and Art is that Art is very subjective. The taxpayer with the Thomas Kincade or "Painting on Velvet" hanging in their house could probably give a rat's a$$ about the "intentions" that the Artist was trying to convey when he came up with the design for the abstract metal sculpture in front of City Hall. I say, stick to statues and fountains,and if you want to please the majority of the publics "eyes", spend the extra money on interesting architecture to beautify the City.,
