It's certainly no afro-pick of peace.

Slapped in front of one of Baton Rouge’s only old world architecture buildings.

Reminds me of the Nola Courthouse Afro pic sculpture.

Yep.

My criteria is simple. If I can do it, it's not "art". I can make that with a little bit of effort.

Many times the stuff that sells is purely for money laundering purposes. Otherwise, if you are good at creating some BS story naïve people believe you can be a successful artist. Frankly, it's better to be a good marketer than artist.

The only worth I see in that thing is it's value in scrap aluminum.

Located on a small green between Boudreaux’s Catering and Baton Rouge Magnet High School, the 20-foot-high aluminum sculpture was created by Shreveport artists Bruce Allen and KaDavien Baylor. Entitled “Spirit Rising,” it’s intended to evoke the four elements: earth, wind, fire and water. The piece features nine rods organized in a grid pattern that reach skyward, each bending in a slightly different fashion at the top.

At least hang a security light off the top of it so it serves some kind of purpose.
