. . . would you hang this new work by Tel Aviv native and artist Ron Arad in your home? "Oh, the farmer & the cowman should be friends" will soon be on exhibit at the Timothy Taylor Gallery in London. It's made of stainless and Cor-Ten steel and forms the shape of the United States — if you hadn't noticed.

No.. but I'm not an American so maybe that's why.
Though I wouldn't want one shaped like Canada either.
1No, but it is an interesting piece..
2Maybe. This is not a piece I would imagine in my home however it is brilliant quite cool looking. I can visualize this is a cozy den/living space for all to enjoy. Though I have to wonder, what would you store in Rhode Island? A pen?
,lol.
3* brilliant & quite cool looking...
4It's freaking cool but I wouldn't put it up unless I had a huge house...
5That is pretty amazing! Though I wish it had mini-shelves so everything in each state cubby isn't so hard to get to...
Actually, I'd be happy if it was a really really big one of my home state, Texas. It's distinctive enough for it to still be interesting, and I could find a way to make it work wherever I live!
6I think it's a really cool statement piece, but I'm with allthingsgrow: you'd need a BIG HOSUE for this !
7NO. I have zero America pride so I wouldn't do it.
8If this was a World Map I would totally go for it. A World Map one of these would be awesome.
9I love this!!
10where is Alaska and Hawaii?
11ha ha, a lover of books(and order), i could just imagine trying to find the book i want out of this one! it's not in order!! lol i like it tho!
12My house is very modern and could sustain this piece. I just don't think I would want my books jumbled like that.
13I think it's awesome! Don't think I'd put books in it though.
14No way!
15I would so use that for my preschoolers.
16I would so be able to organize my books in this! Novels in California, art books in Texas, the bf's in Pennsylvania...
17Hmmm...maybe if I was more eclectic...and if it came in shapes from other countries (like the one where I live).
18I LOVE THIS!!! Jackson Pollock is one of my favorite artists, and I've done a lot of work myself with patriotism & what it means to be American. I'd put this in my home in a second if I could afford it.
19This is awesome! I would organize it by putting author's in their home states!
20this is pretty ace.
21definitely would need a very big house with very tall ceilings.
you could use it for other things not just books.
OMG I just realized that I said Pollock when I should have said Jasper Johns. I'm a very, very bad arteest.
