What a waste of money!!

This proves beyond a doubt that some people are unbelievably stupid! $5 to $10 million could help a lot of people instead of bolstering the ego of on man and a museum director.

This character probably thinks of himself as a "greenie"! What of time, money, effort, and resources.

To paraphrase an existing saying, "I don't know if it's art, but I don't like it."

I think the rock was perfect where it was. No art can be more impressive than the natural creation of this boulder.

For those who consider this project a waste of money and regardless of your opinon of the art value, keep in mind, the money was not shoveled into a pit and buried at the quarry. Rather, it went to the engineers and craftsmen who designed and built the transporter, to the material suppliers from which came the steel, rubber and electronics, to the operating crews and the folks taking down and re-installing the obstacles, to the cities along the way for permits and traffic control...in other words JOBS. Now you may have spent the funds differently if they were yours, but they were certainly not wasted. In the art world, sums of this magnitude change hands all the time for a painting or a sculpture...typically going from one rich person or institution to another. Not many jobs there. And in the end, Los Angeles will end up with a unique display that will attract visitors and generate more jobs yet.

Rock 'n Roll. Seriously I thought there was a shortage of funds in the USA.

This mass is not really levitated, it is lifted up. though not really uplifting, when you walk beneath it.It will inspire a lot of people, if only to figure out how to make it drop.

As a person who knows how to appreciate good art, I find this exquisitely crafted piece of history, to be the most thought-provoking and mind-blowing creation God has ever laid eyes upon. The detail and depth in every cm^3 are only shadowed by the gentleness of the artist's maiden stoke through the peaks and valleys of this wonder. I consider myself among the lucky few that can acknowledge the artist's agony through his creation.
