"...Augmenting the rock with material discloses its intended function and reveals, the original idea juxtaposed to confront the audience with paradoxes arising from unlikely choices of material, or from allusions to discrepant periods in art history..."

How much more obfuscating bullshit do we have to endure in the name of art? I am always wary of any commentary which contains the word 'juxtapose'.

It is undoubtedly less bad the burning or a paint attack though. However it seems tastelessly disrespectful to me.

It looks really crappily done in any case. Not that I'm advocating it being done well or anything. But I rather like those huge statues covered in gold leaf - but of course they were supposed to be covered in gold leaf in the first place.

You should see Mr Rh if he hears the word 'juxtaposition'. It makes him really mad.
