These sculptures in downtown San Francisco are truly unusual. They’re
called “Moonrise: March, October and December” by New-York based,
mixed-media artist Ugo Rondinone.

Unusual is right. They sort of remind me of creatures from Tim Burton’s Nightmare before Christmas movie or something like that.
Hey Danny … I’m wondering whether the artist is inspired by Tim Burton’s vision, or vice versa?
Super unusual and strange, but in a good way!
Yes … very trippy, especially when you come across them for the first time. And it’s not like they’re someplace tucked away; they’re right on at 6th & Mission St., in the heart of the business district. it’s funny to watch the suits walk by it, scratching their heads.

Wow. It’s really unusual and funny face. My children are scared of them. 🙂
Hi! Konnichiwa! Oh no … I hope not too scared! They are interesting, though, aren’t they?
Sure. 🙂
So Tim Burton, love it!!!
hehe … the general consensus is “Burtonesque.” Or would that be “Burtonish?”
I agree, both are good 🙂

That’s one unusual smile for sure! Well captured!
Hi! Thanks for checking out my pic! The smile reminds me of the shark in Finding Nemo.

Too unusual for me… kinda creepy in fact.
Hi Maggie … I’m sure the artist would be interested in the varying blogger reactions to these shots, and that was probably his intention. Thanks for checking it out.
Cool blog, btw.

I think they are funny. Very unusual. Great choice.
Thanks! Everyone has their own interpretation. That’s what I like about them.
Interesting sculpture Stephen!
Hi! Thanks for checking out my post. They’re VERY interesting. The color of their textured surfaces changes with the light of the day. Creepy/cool at night.
Creepy and unusual, but they made me laugh. Great entry.
Thought I had been following you. Anyway, following you now. Thanks for following me. 🙂
Hi! I find that most people look past the obvious unusualisms and see the humor in these very interesting pieces. Glad you liked it.
Oh, and thanks for following my blog. I’ve been checking out yours on a regular basis.
Very unusual, but interesting! I like them.
Hi, and thanks for checking out my post. Everybody has a different feeling about these sculptures, but if anything, it’s agreed that they are at least interesting.
