the ottawa media is going nuts for the latest addition to the national gallery: a huge, in the vertical sense, outdoor sculpture by american artist roxy paine. the stainless steel piece has people in a frenzy for numerous reasons - it cost over a million dollars, it's supposedly unpatriotic, and, most importantly, it is meant to be a tree, but does not have any leaves or branches! perhaps we should have commissioned a child instead. then everyone would get it.
