Imagine if ice cream was delivered on skateboards, a rainbow grew from the top of your head and pink unicorns sprouted from your shoulders. That’s the gist of this kooky sculpture that shouts “Have fun at the State Fair!”
This visceral vase oozes body parts, like rows of fingers, jagged mouths and teeth, and empty eyes and orifices. If vases could talk, would they shout like this?

‘The Coolidge Effect, August 1924′ by David Raven, St. Paul
Republican Calvin Coolidge, the 30th U.S. president, signed into law the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924. This curious painting offers items that appear to cool you off, like a fan and watermelon slices (also a contemporary symbol for Free Palestine), yet the thermometer reads hot and giant horseflies buzz about. How hot is it? The Coolidge effect is also a scientific term referring to the nonmonogamous mating behavior of males in rats, sheep, rams, guinea pigs and golden hamsters.
