Here are my picks from the samples-
This Asian turd calls California its home. Stick some needles in it and move it to San Francisco.
This is supposed to be a turkey. It looks like a bull severed in half as it was jumping over the fence.
This is in Connecticut.
Georgia has this memorial for a monkey massacre. Thank God the depiction is horrendous, because if it was more accurate it would be even more horrendous.
Holy Toledo Ohio. They have Martin Luther King Jr. Jr. Jr. Jr.
Four of his heads are emerging from an orb, like he had a concept album in the 70s.
Rhode Island has Trans Potato Head at one of their airports, which makes you glad you’re leaving.
The rest HERE.

Sadly, these ‘artists’ were commissioned by government agencies and paid handsomely for their personal representations of what mental illness looks like. If only I had to chutzpah to pull off one of these lucrative scams.
Artistic talent not required. The art of bullshitery is the only skill needed.
Damn, Glenn Frey is dead? How did I miss that? I actually liked his solo years.
But some of these statues are laugh out loud funny. 😁😄🤣
Edit: Oops! My brain fart confused Glenn Frey with my favorite Eagle, Don Henley. So long Glenn. Long live Don!
Yeah, yeah, art is subjective. Why subject anyone to this?
My 5 year old’s fridge art was aesthetically more pleasing, and had greater meaning.
Also, there is something hilarious that Paul Joseph Watson has tapped into. When a Brit even says, “Modern architecturrrre” it’s very funny.
So why is that guy on the first picture sculpting Mary Tyler Moore?
That General Forrest in TN looks like it was made by the woman who ruined that Madonna painting.
Elitists snot nosed article. How can you rag on the guy with no legs? Another Chef Boyardee slam? Hatred towards tires?
However, all sane people do agree the demonic stallion in front of the Denver airport should be driven over with a steamroller.
“Look at that statue of Michelle Obama! That is one massive pedestal!”
“That’s not the pedestal, it’s her lower body.”
New Mexico’s pistachio looks like Audrey from Little Shop of Horrors.
Did “Fearless” make the list?
North Carolina’s Queen Charlotte is actually a GORGEOUS statue…
(I guess NC doesn’t have bad enough taste)
But the Taco Queen from Texas needs to be #1!
Instead of Nathan Bedford Forrest for Tennessee, I recommend this one:

It probably lost out to NBF because it simply cries out for neon and glitter.
Communist Takeover Of America – 45 Declared Goals
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”
From https://rense.com//general32/americ.htm
Here’s the finished version, ready for mass production.

That blue thing in Denver is indeed terrifying. When I first saw it I thought I was having hallucinations because of the altitude.
NUDE MAN PULLING ROPE???
BULLSHIT!!
HE’S PRETENDING TO BE PULLING ROPE!!
That dude that did Foamhenge(which was not tax payer funded)has done some pretty neat stuff. He brought a great sculpture to a bike rally in Buena Vista, Va. circa 1980, that depicted a biker that went so fast he had broken the time-space continuum. I had photos of it, but alas they apparently suffered the same fate as the biker after all these years.

Wasn’t that Toledo, OH monstrosity on the cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Presence” album? 😳
No statues from Oregon? That’s a shame because it’s got some horrendous publicly funded art. In front of the old Triple-A baseball field (now a soccer stadium – wouldn’t ya know it), is a sculpture of a grinning boy. Just a huge head, no body. It has holes all over the head. After passing it a few times on the light rail train, I finally understood they are supposed to be freckles. Not clever. Its an eyesore. It’s UGLEEEEE.
I don’t care what anyone else thinks, but that fish going through the building is pretty cool.
Tim, there’s one from Portland, Oregon: The Fish Swimming Through Building.
I went back on that page and read the writer’s comments on each statue, he/she sounds (reads?) like a Liberal.
I like the fish.
I created a wonderfully life-like rendering of Barrack and Michelle this morning, but the wife made me flush it….
It’s been replaced now, but for a while the ugliest statue in New York had to be “Scary Lucy”:

Thankfully it’s no more, but for Ohio, I nominate

You all lose. I win. Again. LOL

That’s a colt python. I hope the bastard died from a 357 gun shot wound.
Obamas are not all that popular, even in Portland. So the city hides renditions of them in outhouse basements.
That SD statue is corny
