LAPD Headquarters Art Installation Getting Panned



The art installation on the west side of the new LAPD headquarters is getting panned by Chief William Bratton and apparently many others . According to an LA Times column by Steve Lopez , Bratton said "it's as ugly up close as it is when you're driving by." Bratton added "I don't think anybody can figure out" what the shapes are supposed to be, Bratton said. "Bisons and hippos maybe. I haven't the faintest idea what the two tallest things are on either side." All for the price of $500K.

Hippos, blobs, elongated horses - where's the continuity? Yuck.
