Well, I can kind of see it. Its pretty much done in the likeness of a typical ebony wood carving.
Ive seen a lot of those from Eastern Africa. I guess its all a matter of personal taste.
The little olympic flame kind of kills it for me.

What does it take for the good people who identify as African Americans to realize that they are being used by elite trash in the democrat party?

 

[SassyIrishLass]

WTF is that?

You poor thing.

No offense but who wants to celebrate African culture?

Black people sure don't aside from a dumb name and some clothes here and there they don't give a shit about Africa. They were born in America and don't even know the first thing about Africa. I've seen a lot of them talk about the country of Africa when it's a god damn continent.

They especially don't know that know that for a long long ass time indians and white people lived in Africa. There are millions of indians there especially in the south were they (shocked expression) indentured slaves originally.

And who picked that design? I get it's supposed to look like an old African fetish but Jesus it looks like some 1880 cartoon, and it's sitting instead of standing, it looks dumb and or unhappy, and I guess the torch is supposed to make it look like a statue of liberty?

Well, its a figure sitting in a King's Chair. Its kind of a poor copy IMO... the originals from Africa are much better, but this one is huge. So basicaly yes, I think the reason why this figure is sitting is because its supposed to represent a King.
Most African art was made to look in the abstract on purpose anyhow, sometimes its pretty alien looking or wierd geometric shapes

 

[Indeependent]

Where's the malaria ridden swamps and the women with their t-ts hanging?

 

[skye]

wow.

Why did they do that? surely a sculptor did not do that....who did they do that? why?

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

Betcha it comes to life and terrorizes the city!!

 

[Yarddog]

wow.

Oh yes, come on now ! it clearly does represent African Art. I just hope when its displayed there will be some sort of info along with it to explain. I think a lot of people wont get it. I cant remember what the little flame is supposed to represent, maybe it could symbolize lighting the way..... Though I think the artist may have copied AudioSlave...

Flamers. Gay inclusive.

I don't like that statue.

It's not a normal statue.

They could have make a better one.

I think it perfectly complements that dumpster they built right in front of the Washington Monument...
