Current Communist Goals
# 22 Continue discrediting [Western] culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression….eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.Excerpt from "The Naked Communist," by Cleon Skousen (1962) https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015068647141&seq=1

Londoners aren't pleased with the latest in a rotating series of sculptures displayed on plinths in Trafalgar Square since 1999. The sculpture in question is Tschabalala Self's "Lady in Blue."
Sadly, "Lady in Blue" is probably the best of Tschabalala Self's mediocre efforts and doesn't seem to represent anything more than the extremely exaggerated and sexualized women drawn in underground comics by artist Robert Crumb since the late 1960s.
If Londoner's don't like "Lady in Blue," I can't wait to hear what the have to say about the forthcoming plinth-occupier, "Untitled," by Andrea Ursula:
"Untitled" happens to bear a resemblance to the funny amorphous alien character Yaphit (voiced by Norm MacDonald) in the TV series "The Orville," but the only funny thing about "Untitled" is that some consider it art.
If the Brits had any sense, they'd display a statue with real meaning that portends the future for Londoners and the woke U.K. as a whole. I nominate a slightly modified version of Friedrich Kunath's "Tropical Depression."
