Parade du Grotesque 💀An absolute GENIUS has put googly eyes on the huge white tube outside of the Pompidou center in Paris. And I am all for it.
This is your weird picture of Paris for today.

Uilebheist@ParadeGrotesque That is so much better than before!
I hope they don't remove them. "They" being whoever does maintenance on these things and might decide they don't belong.

F4GRX Sébastien@Uilebheist @ParadeGrotesque I dont think the maintenance staff will remove them :) This is very inline with the Beaubourg museum spirit :)
We shall see, I will post an update from time to time.
These are aerials for subway, if I remember well, and they are pasted to a central round part, so they should not be too much of a problem.
Since the Pompidou center is going to close in a few weeeks for 2-3 years to be renovated, I suspect the maintenance people will just wait for them to fall off on their own. 😉
@ParadeGrotesque @Uilebheist I'll also have a look, I work very close and go there very often to visit leroy merlin lol

Isocat@ParadeGrotesque Absurdist whimsy? Art about the surveillance state, or surveillance capitalism…?
Definitely in the 'Absurdist Whimsy' category, in my opinion.
Though, with Macron being President, I agree it could fall in the other two categories.
Luna@ParadeGrotesque @hellgy where were you when that happened? 👀

Jonathan Yu@ParadeGrotesque Putting large googley eyes on things seems like one of @dan's retirement hobbies, tbh. I want Dan to become a billionaire so that we all have more whimsy in our lives
Negenby Vibesmith@ParadeGrotesque nothing will beat the time I went to Ghent and there was a painted sphincter put inside a cannon
Ms. Que Banh@ParadeGrotesque This sparks joy 😊
