Snapshot: Vancouver


Walking up Howe toward the movie theater on Burrard I pass the Vancouver Art Gallery where the big Winter Olympic Countdown digital clock is.
There is also this.
I don't know what it is but I should have been listening to Pink Floyd, methinks.
Here is a closer shot.

Update: Pic is coming. Having trouble uploading from the hotel....don't worry.

DoubleUpdate: From John "Canadian artist Jeff Ladouceur’s massive inflatable sculpture Floater will span the columns of the Vancouver Art Gallery’s Georgia Street façade. Created to coincide with the current exhibition KRAZY! The Delirious World of Anime + Comic + Video Games + Art, the large-scale installation of a cartoon-like body intertwined in the Gallery’s pillars, draws on the artist’s celebrated work as an illustrator"

Balloon Art at its best.

Crazy baby art! Love it!

Here's what I got from their web site - the museum sounds great:
