Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I think it is art, plain and simple!. I resent the guy for being gluttonously wealthy but to make an entire life size sculpture o ut of solid gold almost shows a contempt, at least a disrespect, for what we regard as valuable!. That sculpture could feed and protect many unfortunate people this very day, perhaps there is a deeper message here!?!?!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Let me get this straight!.!.!.a 110lb statue worth 2!.8 million dollars!.!.!.I find it very ironic, and hillarious!.

For starters!.!.!.the statue probably outweighs her by 30lbs or so!.

And when I see Kate Moss and $2!.8 million dollars in the same sentence, I automatically think the subject is referring to her cocaine habit!.!.!.b/c I figure she spends atleast twice that a year on her addiction!.

Am I alone in this!? Www@QuestionHome@Com

As an art piece I find it only valuable because it is made of gold!. In terms of artistic merrit and in terms of advancing issues in sculpture and contemporary art it's worthless and recitivistic!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Different strokes for different folks! Don't idolize anyone in particular who I would sculpt with solid gold!. It makes a statement for his art, no doubt!. Now maybe if he had used platinum gold, maybe that will be next!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i think if i had 110 pounds of gold i'd find something else to do with it!. any metal cast sculpture is very labor intense and i'm just not that industrious!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I hope someday people will love me enough to make a solid gold sculpture of me!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Makes me wonder just how long it will last before being melted down for other use!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A BIG waist of money!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
