Look, Don’t Touch

A mother and daughter visiting the Susquehanna Art Museum saw a swing set with the swings stuck in the air, so they decided help out and correct the situation. More

  1. Oh FFS, enough already of this modern art crap.

    I remember when a guy from the City shops came into work early and spotted a pile of garbage dumped on the lawn of the City park. He brought in a front loader and scooped up a “priceless” work of art that was in actuality a pile of garbage and hauled it to the dump a couple years ago. If that pile of crap was art then just add in tickets for a shuttle bus ride to the City dump and call it good.

  2. I noticed that the idiots weren’t identified. Why might that have been? Might they be from an influential family? Inquiring minds…don’t really care. They are idiots.

  3. “…Matthews spent 60 hours on welding alone to construct the installation and it was insured for $5,000.”
    They need to learn a new trade, and never weld anything for me. 60 hours. She reached up with one hand and pulled it down. I’m glad no one was hurt. Hopefully, if it is now an ‘active’ swing set, they will have the appropriate helmets, with chin straps, handy. Oh, and properly sanitized in between uses, too.
    Do you think the woman thought it was stuck? Maybe gravity is optional sometimes in her world.

  4. “Maybe gravity is optional sometimes in her world.” LOLOL!

    You really have to wonder, don’t you? But the idiots should be identified just in case they decide to go to a real art exhibit and damage something that is actually art.

    Art in the sense that they have been banned from playgrounds to protect the precious snowflakes.

    While making fun of the snowflakes, don’t forget they came from clouds.

  6. How the hell could it take 60 hours to weld a swing in the air? It was obviously 60 hours wasted since it was so easily pulled down.

    Frankly, it looked to me like the chains were just wrapped around the pole, something kids have been doing forever to make the swing higher. Who knew all those kids were artists.

  7. The artist could have purchased function insurance known as an electric fence charger for $40 ~ $200 at Tractor Supply or Lowe’s . Which would have also increased the entertainment value of the art, making the static piece into an interactive audience mobile with intermittent random unique sound effects.

  8. “The swings were swinging … We were just devastated.”

    I can only imagine. In fact, I’m thinking about it right now. I’ll go on display for you in your ‘museum’. $10 a pop & you can keep 25%. Deal?
