This statue is bad in every way. When I first drove past it, on my way to the main terminal of DIA, I had to pull over and stare at it. It is amazingly ugly. First, it’s huge, probably 30 feet tall. Secondly, it is oddly distorted. It looks like it was sculpted by someone who had never seen a real horse. It looks crazed and angry and evil. On top of that, it is bright blue with light-up red terminator eyes. And like all evil Frankenstien Monsters, this one killed it’s creator. Sculptor Luis Jimenez was crushed to death when this statue fell on him in his studio last year. Now that is Bad Art.
