Another instance of Food Imitates Art!
“Light” By Ula Einstein
This statue of a young man holding the severed head of beloved, iconic fast-food mascot Ronald McDonald can be found in Venice, Italy, though I haven’t yet been able to dig up any information on the statue’s exact location or artist. I love how it sends a strong anti-McDonald’s message through the appropriation of the famous statue of Perseus holding the head of Medusa, as seen in the image below. Extreme, yes. Hilarious, also yes. But no amount of over-the-top “McDonald’s is Evil” propaganda will ever keep me away from a tasty Filet O’Fish when the craving strikes.
“All Hail The Bacon Statue!”
This is a photo of the Bacon Statue at Sonoma State University (clearly an institution of higher learning) which I stole from the FaceBook Fan Page of J&D’s Foods (makers of Bacon Salt). Thanks to Swami for the Tip!
LEGO Brick artist extraordinaire, Nathan Sawaya made this life size statue of late night talk show host Conan O’Brien for an unnamed commission. I think it is pretty awesome!
