Hulls

I do not know the true title of these sculptures but I thought they suggested something nautical like hulls of ships or waves. See that blue sign in the back on the left? Basically they ask people to look and not touch. I do not see how they are ever going to enforce that! While you can't tell from my photos, the sculpture park was quite well attended on this blustery winter afternoon. There has been some discussion about the signs. They are rather tacky and detract visually from the sculptures. While I certainly don't advocate violating the sculptures with graffiti, shouldn't simply touching them be an allowable and expected? After all, they have been constructed to be outside and if the weather can do its worst why can't we at least touch the sculptures?

About Me

My photo

My blog's title originated in July 2004 as I was preparing to send my then 16 year old daughter to Annecy, France as an exchange student. It was to be a 10 and 1/2 month separation that I was sure I could not endure. BUT, thanks to the internet and blogging I survived her adventures outside of our 'nest'. Once she returned, I thought of changing the title but realized that 10 and 1/2 Months was a fitting description of the cycle of my teaching life too. Now that I am retired the days and months have much less structure but the title remains out of nostalgia for my teaching days.
