The vandalisation of art: (de)commissioning art in public space
The Plaza of Adelaide is well-known in the world of art and became acknowledged as an artistically outstanding creation of the last quarter of the 20th century. Should a destruction of this complete artwork occur, it would be, I am afraid, seen as sheer vandalism that cannot be accepted in the civilised world of today.
