City sculptor Alex Gardega — seething over the “Fearless Girl” statue being placed across from Wall Street’s “Charging Bull” — has decided to retaliate with a work of his own.
Gardega created a statue of a small dog, titled “Pissing Pug,” and his sloppily crafted pooch takes direct aim at “Fearless Girl” — or, at least, at her left leg.
“This is corporate nonsense,” Gardega told The Post of “Fearless Girl,” saying it was put opposite artist Arturo Di Modica’s famed bull as a publicity stunt by a Boston-based financial firm.
“It has nothing to do with feminism, and it is disrespect to the artist that made the bull,” he said. “That bull had integrity.”
The Upper West Side artist sniffed that he even made his dog particularly poorly just to stick it to “Fearless Girl” even more.
“I decided to build this dog and make it crappy to downgrade the statue, exactly how the girl is a downgrade on the bull,” said Gardega, who has never met the other statues’ creators.
But many female passers-by Monday said “Fearless Girl” has come to represent women taking on Wall Street — and just about anybody else standing up to financial firms — and that Gardega’s peeing dog is misogynistic.
“That’s an a–hole move. You call this art?” said one woman, who kicked the dog statue as she walked by.
But Gardega insisted that he is “pro-feminism” and has “nothing against the sculptor whatsoever.”
Some people appreciated his artistic statement — once he explained it.
“I respect his opinion . . . and that’s really cool,” said tourist Pam Guadarrama, 24, visiting from California.
5-star agit-prop!
Next some shit head progressive will sculpt a deer tick and put it on the pug.
Who can blame him? By sticking that stupid “Fearless Girl” in front of his raging bull, it totally redefined what his raging bull meant.
I think it’s brilliant!
New York is insane!
Too bad the dog isn’t pissing nitric acid. By afternoon the girl would be standing on one leg.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Screw New York! The place is a communist infested rats nest.
“That’s an a–hole move. You call this art?” said one woman, who kicked the dog statue as she walked by.”
And kicking sculpture is not “an a-hole move?” Stunning lack of self-awareness, lady.
Gardega should have made it a spiky pup.
Im on the bulls side, however, just to keep things going, how about a korean about to eat the dog?
Merc, Obama already submitted himself.
Just need to relocate the statue
need anthony weiner standing there texting. Or podesta leering at her
Pissing Pug or Bear Poop, you decide.
A Remington, Mr. Gardega is not.
You wanna really insult the girl statue, dress her up in a Ghost Busters outfit.
I thought “Defiant Girt” was supposed to be temporary. When is her 15 minutes up?
I have a vision……..of two empty bronze sneakers where the statue of Hillary, Jr. now stands.
Shoulda put a Bill Clinton statue laying on his back looking up the girls dress…
LOL!!!
Or anthony weiner standing next to her with mirrors on his shoes.
I like that better…subtle.
…Can they PLEASE just admit that it was a ‘piss poor’ idea and get rid of the little girl statue already???
“But many female passers-by Monday said “Fearless Girl” has come to represent women taking on Wall Street”
The founding fathers were wise in not giving women the vote.
Since they have been given the right to vote they have proven their lust for security at the expense of liberty.
Yes, Plough Jogger, and so too have many emasculated and castrated men who have chosen security over liberty.
‘Tis a problem, indeed! Perhaps the problem is best viewed through the lens of cultural mind-warping via what’s called an education nowadays and not because women vote.
Hahaha love it! And the young liberal idjits are showing how tolerant they are by kicking and damaging it
