Comment of the Week
👋 Big Pickup fan here and Riverview resident! I don't think Kelleher deserves all the hate. It's common in contemporary art for artists to play with pop culture iconography and to use emerging technologies as a tool. It has a retro Route 66 "muffler man" style, and I get that. I preferred the original design, which had less committee-led compromise, but I'm still on board. It's okay for cities to enlist the work of outside artists and be less insular. BTW "Cry Baby Cry" is a Beatles song. 🎵
