Not sure I understand what you are saying here, are you suggesting that women are treated equitably in corporate America? Doesn't this symbolic confro...
I don't think the girl, aside from the bull is much of a work of art, the girl confronting the bull, as a symbolic act installed the day prior to one ...
I very much agree that from the Bull's perspective the girl taps its power. She is supervenes over the Bull expanding on its representation of capital...

I am not sure that 'weakness' as displayed in the Fearless Girl is weak. She is shaming it defiantly. "God chose what is weak in the world to shame th...
So then the concept of time is not needed for what mathematicians do, it becomes a question of frequency and repetition for them, not time. For the ma...
No, they are both legitimate, and I think it is fair to say that the introduction of the Fearless Girl onto the scene makes it relevant to our time. I...

I think "superfluous" is the wrong word. The culture in US fetishizes imagery and the "Charging Bull" reifies "Wall Street a bunch of aggressively ent...
Yes, a really interesting facet of this jewel is the artist still owns the work, the City has only permitted its use at this location. I think it can ...
I like the Charging Bull, its massive form, and the power and danger it expresses.. The Bull's dynamic stance suggest its uncertainty for all that pas...
