Communist Goal #22

Communist goal #22 said, “Discredit American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. Eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms”.

I’ve been fascinated by how successful they have been. I keep wondering who approves these pieces of “art”. Does anyone look at any of these “sculptures” and feel uplifted? Do you stop in your tracks in awe of their beauty? I’m reminded of traveling in Italy and around every corner there were incredibly beautiful statues and fountains. I wish there were even a few here. The pictures below are from parks and buildings around Beverly Hills where one would expect to see beauty. When the peach colored twisted metal thing in front of the Bank of America on Wilshire Boulevard was installed I was dumbstruck that anyone approved such a laughably ugly thing. I challenge anyone to point out a statue or piece of art displayed in parks or buildings around Los Angeles that makes you weep at it’s beauty.
