Unconditional Surrender by J. Seward Johnson
The image is "Unconditional Surrender" by J. Seward Johnson
this big statue (26 ft. tall) is big news in this town. Here's a link
to a news story www.baynews9.com/content/36/2005/12/25/135738.html and a link to the artist's website www.sewardjohnson.com/
So much of art is sitting in a museum somewhere or on someone's wall
where most of us might get to see it someday. Well here's a piece
that's right out there where everybody can love it or hate it.
Considering most of SRQ are retirees who remember what this image
stands for I think its a good thing that it's paying us a visit (who
knows I here there's a movement afoot to keep it here for good.) I'm
sure there will be more talk and action on what is to be done with
this work. Stay tuned!
