    Squashed Giant at National Harbor

    I finally got to see The Awakening

    How sad. Did they buy this piece or is it on loan?
    It's on a small sand lot with barely enough room to walk around it.This is not how this sculpture should be displayed.

    It used to be over at Haines Point... and it had a lot more space.

    I liked it better over there.

    He was properly displayed at Haines Point.
    This is a travesty and a sin against art.

    That's terrible! I thought it was supposed to be a permanent move, but it looks just awful in that space.

    Oh my!

    I don't know how I feel about that. I can't bring myself to go to Hain's Point now that the Awakening is gone. And as a loyal virginian I limit my travel to Maryland

    I guess one could be grateful that it isn't in Chicago or something like that. But they really should have left it alone.
