Exiled

I asked this fellow what he had done to get himself kicked out of the Phoenix Art Museum.  He didn't answer me.  He just sat there looking rather forlorn.
































This statue by artist Nathan Mabry used to sit in the contemporary gallery.  The piece is called Two Vessels (Unpacked) but, I couldn't find any information that gave an explanation of that name.

He was recently moved to a position just outside the entrance to the museum.  When I saw him there I thought he looked a little unhappy about the new location but judging from this older photo inside the museum, he wasn't in the best of spirits there either.

  3. He reminds me of a student who failed his physics class at ASU. And I know the feeling! I didn't take physics, though and didn't fail a class, but still...

  5. The sculpture is a PERFECT depiction of the current stance of Midwesterners waiting for spring!
