cow parade!




so many cows appeared around Tokyo station out of nowhere. now cow parade is held even in Tokyo. my friend saw the cow parade while she was in Chicago and I believe I've seen it too somewhere in Toronto (or was that only a moose?) but I didn't know its history at all. so i checked a little about the cow parade and cow parade is.... a public art exhibition started in Zurich, Switzerland in 1998 and it spread to international major cities. the famous one is Chicago Cow Parade. the cows are made of fiberglass and they are to be auctioned after the exhibition was closed. 次の芸術家たちの育成などのお金に使われるのかな?

私は丸ビルに入ってた数頭しか見てないのだけれどそれだけでも可愛かった。まだやっているかどうか知りませんが丸ビル周辺で結構それなりの規模で牛が並んでいるようなので牛好きの人はどうぞ見てみて!
