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.

Still Rooting, For Now

Still Rooting, For Now

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:

Upsidedown Church (Device to Root Out Evil!)

Upsidedown Church (Device to Root Out Evil!)

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!
