Residents of wealthy Old Westbury, N.Y., do not have to worry about living downwind of a pig farm or next to a fraternity house.They do have to be concerned, it turns out, that a millionaire neighbor will plop a 33-foot, painted bronze sculpture of a beyond-naked pregnant woman with an exposed fetus on his front lawn. So when Aby Rosen, the real estate titan and art collector, installed this 13-ton statue by Damien Hirst on his newly renovated property last month, his neighbors were roused into action.“It is out of character with the neighborhood,” the village’s mayor, Fred Carillo, has said in interviews, noting that it would be more appropriate outside a medical building devoted to obstetrics and gynecology.As a result of complaints, village officials have voted to hold a public hearing this month on a proposed law to limit the height of statues to 25 feet, even ones by famous artists.

The sculpture was in midtown manhattan at the lever building for awhile maybe six years ago I passed by it semi regularly on the way to workIt sure is something
― Look at this joke I've recognised, do you recognise it as well? (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 4 June 2014 01:17 (ten years ago) link
yeah, thought so.
I also remember that Hirst installation in the lobby of lever from maybe back then or longer ago. It was the first time I had ever actually even noticed the lever building, so it was pretty shocking to walk by and see all these splayed open sheep carcasses in glass tanks or whatever the hell it was in the all-glass lobby of a midtown building, even though I recognized pretty quickly what it was. This other lady who was peering in at the same time goes "Oooh, I know what's going on in there -- animal testing!"

I like that the village mayor is trying to foist Damien Hirst sculptures off on unsuspecting OB/GYN wards. I keep wanting to get down to Old Westbury though - the SUNY campus is a Brutalist "let's do a hill town, but with concrete" piece by John Johansen, right up my alley.
