By one of the entrances to the Crown Metropol Casino at Burswood, stands this very elegant metal structure. I don't know much about it though... It could well have been part of the Sculpture by the Sea exhibitions a few years ago...
This pink kite is just outside the Art Gallery of Western Australia in the Cultural precinct. The artist is also unknown. I like the quote...
This one called "Games" was one of the statues exhibited at the Sculpture by the Sea 2013, by Chinese artist, Chen Wen Ling. As I drove home one day from the Northern suburbs I saw this while I waited by the traffic light. Luckily the light was red and I quickly took out my camera and took a photo. A bit blurry...
On the corner of Beaufort and Vincent Street in Mount Lawley stands this quirky bronze statue of a male dog and female rabbit on a bike.
I first saw it about 2 years ago when I was invited to a friend's birthday lunch at "Veggie Mama", a vegetarian restaurant.On my last trip to Mount Lawley where I photographed some murals, I went past it again, and this time the bicycle tyres were covered in pink material, as well as the "dog" was holding a board advertising something.
Hope you're having a fabulous weekend! Enjoy it!!

Ah! These are so interesting...especially the last one. I must check out your series from last year too :)
ReplyDeleteHi Siddhartha, just search for "Public art in Perth" under Search in this blog, on the right. You'lll find some interesting art.
DeleteI didn´t see the "Games", oh, my!
ReplyDeleteHehe, you got all the "naughty" parts, I love the pink!
The first one is beautiful, too - and the second and third... I took a pic and an older man walked in, raising his forefinger, asking rather harsh if I put him on the internet ... then gave me a big smile.
I miss you all!
That dog and rabbit is a cute statue isn't it? Were you here for the 2013 Sculpture by the sea?
DeleteGostei especialmente das estátuas de bronze! Muito interessantes!
ReplyDeleteObrigada Sandra. E engracada nao e?
DeleteI remember the first from Sculptures B the Sea Sami, looked fab on the beach. It's always fun to come across sculptures that have been bought by the city.
ReplyDeleteI remember it too Grace. It's quite nice that city councils buy some of that art exhibited at Cottesloe.
DeleteDearest Sami,
ReplyDeleteWhat fun art work you show us here. Who comes with the ideas? Love the dog- and rabbit-head sculptures with human parts.
Hugs,
Mariette
Some sculptors have a big imagination don't you agree.
DeleteI always like art in the open air, it has something special and may people can enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteIt's true, this type of art is open to all.
