As reported by the
Alexandria News:
On Wed., March 30, alexandrianews.org broke the news that four final art projects were under consideration as public art at the Washington Headquarters Services facility at Mark Center. The $600,000 project got instant reaction from the public and from Virginia Congressman Jim Moran who is a member of the House Appopriations committee...
The four proposals include: a three dimensional interpretation of Sweetbay Magnolia or Magnolia Virginiana; a functional, artistic bench that incorporates various geometric shapes such as a sphere, a cylinder and a cone; a 32-foot long glass wall, divided into nine panels; and a 10-foot high fairy using an American toad as transportation, with sounds of nature emanating from the toad’s throat.
Commentary from a congressman at the link, and more at
Huffington Post. I'll defer...
