Dennis Oppenheim's "Device to Root Out Evil" has been removed.....some complained that it obscured their view and others found it too controversial and "anti-Christian". The Vancouver Parks Board are obviously idiots.

A second shot of "Device To Root Out Evil".

Because of complaints the parks board has decided to take it down.

I don't know what community they represent, but it's not my community. Everyone I know loves this piece and is horrified that it's being removed.

They are taking the public opinions on this at the next board meeting:

Monday, April 14, 2008, 7:00pm
Thunderbird Community Centre
2311 Cassiar Street, Vancouver

In its current location on Cordova and Bute. Apparently this artwork is being removed due to complaints from religious groups and surrounding condo owners - people are simply far too serious!
