Those of you who followed
my photo blog in Toronto may remember how much I love the works of
William McElcheran. Imagine my surprise when I turned the corner in Berlin and found THAT GUY sitting there!
McElcheran was a Canadian artist who spread these sculptures to different cities across the world, but I had no idea there were any here in Berlin. If you have THAT GUY in your city, I'd love to see him. Until then, you can see a few Toronto examples
here and
here.
I imagine this was a wonderful surprise!
ReplyDeleteI think I saw him somewhere in Rotterdam but I am not sure of it.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a pleasant surprise for you. eh.
ReplyDeleteThere he is!
ReplyDeleteSmall world!
ReplyDeleteYou are not the only one who loves and admires McElcheran works. I discovered him as a very small child in Guelph , where my father worked for some years. And Berlin is full of surprises !
ReplyDeletewow, that is so cool!! i bet it was like running into an old friend!
ReplyDeleteHe looks comfortable reading his paper there!
ReplyDeleteThat must have been a nice surprise to come upon him! I'v posted several pics of his pieces too but all from Toronto.
ReplyDeleteIs he 'stoned' or metaled. Are those yesterday's papers?
ReplyDeleteoh, i like 'that guy!' :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for introducing me to "That Guy". I did a Google search and saw photos of several of his sculptures and they are all priceless. I love the one called "The Conversation". How fun for you find one in Berlin.
ReplyDeleteQuite a sculpture. No, I hadn't seen those two Toronto sculptures before.
ReplyDeleteGood things get around! Tom The Backroads Traveller
ReplyDeleteSorry, we have many guys and things, but not him... Until now!
ReplyDeleteThere is one is the dreaded Pisa...
DeleteA nice shot!
ReplyDeleteCool!
ReplyDeleteWhat a good surprise for you !
ReplyDeleteHow nice that you didn't leave him behind in Canada! I know he hasn't made it to our small town. I'll have to make a check to see if he's anywhere around Seattle.
ReplyDeleteReminds me a little of that guy Rob Ford!!
ReplyDeleteI will definitely keep my eyes open for THAT GUY :) just in case he's flown all the way over to Perth :) Happy weekend Hal.
