Bank Art

Banks have a sacred place in the world of bad art. Boring. Uninteresting on a level that is almost unsurpassable... Worse, they often think they are being daring or innovative--and they usually aren't.

A classic example, is this attempt in Castro Valley. I've passed it dozens of times and never noticed it. And then I did.


Not sure if this is part of the sculpture, or if this is someone's attempt at a repair... Maybe it was a fountain at one point--if it was, they lost something interesting, I think the water would have been interesting against the texture. But now, it just looks like shit...
