A new condo development on Cambie Street near Queen Elizabeth Park is reinforcing the old adage, “art is subjective.”
Quirky public art in Vancouver is nothing new — remember the Main Street Poodle, or the (still going strong) A-Maze-ing Laughter at English Bay?
Now, several new public art pieces outside of a recently completed condo development on Cambie Street are attracting attention.
The art runs the gamut from Converse shoes, to hats, to what looks like a proud grocer’s orange display, and it’s all available for viewing (and critiques) from passersby at the 35 Park West development near Queen Elizabeth Park.
The development’s pubic art budget was $331,850.
Unfortunately, there are no information plaques or signage yet, so channel your inner art critic, and let’s take a look.
Put your best foot forward
Orange you glad you came?
Hats off to you.
Bonus round: What on earth is this?
What's your favourite?
