Sir Anthony Gormley used steel blocks to create his piece called “Alert,” which was meant to portray a human squatting, but the students think it appears more equivalent to an “erect penis” instead.
Gormley released a statement that appeared on the school’s website.
“Through the conversion of anatomy into an architectural construction I want to re-assess the relation between body and space. Balancing on the balls of the feet while squatting on its haunches and surveying the world around it, the attitude of this sculpture is alive, alert and awake,” he wrote.
Another concern was “Alert” being “exclusionary” by showing a man and not a woman.

“ Sir Antony Gormley faces ‘retaliation’ over Penis bollard on beach
The work Penis was among four installed on the beach at Aldeburgh in Suffolk”
Either that or “L” for loser.
Looks like a pixelated penis.

It doesn’t look anything like a penis. And it doesn’t look anything like art, either.
