What a perfect choice for the theme. Calder's art seems somehow out of place against such a historic building. I worked in Chicago for 2 1/2 years a few years back and there is a giant Calder similar to this one located in front of the post office building. But, that building itself was modern so it sort of fit right in.
A nice choice. Looks like something from a SciFi movie.
What is it? Real art.
Happy Theme Day!
Funny thought of you for this, I like it.
Happy Theme Day!
My Bangkok Through My Eyes!
You got a Posty: I want to give 15 postcards :)
This is a real contrast and the poor Calder is outclassed by the glimpse of the Monastery.
I always prefered old historical buildings over modern art. Thanks for sharing.
The sculpture is OK. Good for theme day. But I do love that monastery!
That's a contrast! Modern and old, colours, shadows. Excellent!
Perfect contrast. the old and the new. I like it. MB
That is surely a contrast! Good choice.
sculpture originale, un beau contrasme entre le vieux et le moderne, bonne idee
! Who decided to plop it down there? Too much contrast for me. A picture just made for Theme Day.
Your Calder looks almost like ours. Are all his stabiles painted with "Calder red"?
a good contrast indeed
Contrast and great ART :)
Great choice !!

Yep, fantastic contrast. And I love Calder!
Great photo for theme day!! Interesting, too.
Interesting contrast! Do I have to say which I like more:)
Great theme day post and very interesting sculpture.
Who wouldn't want one of those in the garden.
Excellent photo. Great contrast.
I like both!
interesting contrast in both style and color.
Wonderful contrast shot. Personally, I'd immediately remove the "art piece" (yup, I'm not a fan of modern art!) and enjoy the architectural wealth of the building behind it :)
Very good example of 'contrast'. It's so interesting to see your interpretation.
Nice choice, I will always pick the old.
Modern, red and wonderful!
Congratulations!
