Window in the Grass
Here’s a typical example of NIU’s silly outdoor sculpture:
I suspect it’s some sort of portal to another universe. So far, however, I haven’t been able to turn it on.
The sad part is: Compared with some of the other sculpture here, this piece is actually not that bad. It doesn’t say anything particularly meaningful; but it’s well done for a (chopped up) rock with a hole in it. Note the Picasso imitation in the background.
Maybe it really is a portal. I wonder if they have lots of Zeppelins on the other side.

That thing is hideous. It would be slightly impressive if they actually carved a hole in the rock, but no, they had to slice the thing into four pieces. So sad. Seems like a waste of a perfectly good rock.
