Rabbit Art in Downtown Pittsburgh.
When Steve came home from work we drove down to 8th and Penn Avenue to see the fifty-foot inflatable rabbit, part of the Intrude Installation . It wasn’t there!
We found the three smaller Rabbits on 7th Avenue. A person protecting the display was able to tell me why the fifty-foot rabbit wasn’t to be found. I discovered they check the wind and so the fifty- foot rabbit had been deflated to keep it safe.
Here are the rabbits I did see. by Australian Artist Amanda Parer
It’s an interesting message, Ruth, and I love the rabbits, but maybe I should switch my affections to teddy bears instead?
Interesting indeed. I’m going to hop on the internet to learn more. dc
I find this especially interesting since I graduated from a rural Minnesota high school with a white rabbit mascot. We were “the Rabbits.” The name came from the Native American town name when translated into English was “White Rabbit.”
That’s the first time I’ve heard of a rabbit mascot. I’m hoping I can find the giant one soon
They are great – I wonder how long they’ll be around.
Cute that they can be hugged or petted. Did you do either?
