Skeletonized Oscar

By David in Everything Else on Mar 14, 2010 at 9:57 am

Here in LA, a skeletonized Oscar-esque statue suddenly appeared atop Runyon Canyon days before the awards show last week. For those who don’t know it, Runyon Canyon is a park in Hollywood that’s very popular with joggers, hikers and dog lovers (dogs can go unleashed and run up the canyon trails).

No one knows who sculpted the giant Oscar, but clearly there’s a message behind it. Has plastic surgery taken over Hollywood? The world? Is there anything wrong with plastic surgery? (via Los Anjealous.)

    …the message is, “Oscar is dead.” Not, “Oscar is botoxxed.” A more amusing message is, “Oscar, like Bela Lugosi, is undead.” In fact, I think that last one nails it.

    I love that kind of guerilla-art- They’re just like those circles in the fields or guerilla-gardens that pop up and make people all uncomfortable and nervous and making them think that there’s spooky things going on. :-P
