I don't care who pays for it. My problem is getting some sculptor to do the job. Artists are bloody flogs, you get some guy to do a simple job and they turn it into some gut-wrenching emotionally cathartic expression of their inner self (or something). Even the best sculptor who ever lived came up with this 'family portrait':
Sure, great sculpture but it looks like something left in a tissue after blowing your nose. No one wants a glob of stuff stuck in a park - what we need is a 20m statue of Pav to light up at night.
