Like much “public art”...it is BS.

Googe the "Heidelberg Project" in Detroit and see what ya come up with.

This "Project" is a glorified trash dump in a run down neighborhood where some "artist" came up with the idea of turning some abandoned homes into "artwork". In recent weeks there have been two arson attempts there and while authorities are searching for the culprit(s), I suspect it's someone in the neighborhod who is fed up with looking at all the crap.

Good point about the reason for the arson. I know a lot of arsons in Detroit are simply the locals cleaning out crack houses.

Speaking of taxpayer funded art, I just read this irritating article.
