” Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”” - Cleon Skousen
Certainly can’t blame Cleveland for sending it away.
