New public art on Cambie Street may leave you perplexed – urbanYVR
Hats off to you! Orange you glad you’re a shoe-in?
A new condo development on Cambie Street near Queen Elizabeth Park is reinforcing the old adage, “art is subjective.”
Quirky public art in Vancouver is nothing new — remember the Main Street Poodle, or the (still going strong) A-Maze-ing Laughter at English Bay?
Now, several new public art pieces outside of a recently completed condo development on Cambie Street are attracting attention.
The art runs the gamut from Converse shoes, to hats, to what looks like a proud grocer’s orange display, and it’s all available for viewing (and critiques) from passersby at the 35 Park West development near Queen Elizabeth Park.
Unfortunately, there are no information plaques or signage yet, so channel your inner art critic, and let’s take a look.
Put your best foot forward
Orange you glad you came?
Hats off to you.
Bonus round: What on earth is this?
It’s not known if the pieces are the developer’s public art contribution for the project, or who the artists are.
What’s your favourite?
