Eyesore of the Month
January 2003
An interesting attempt to
"dress up" the Department of Education headquarters in
our nation's capital with some signifier of meaning besides the
message bureaucrat goldbricks within which is intrinsic to
this style of government Modernism. Since we are a people accustomed
to televised cartoons, what we get is a little ground floor "skirt"
of crudely-drawn old-timey buildings that might be interpreted as
little red schoolhouses. Unfortunately the cartoon is so
abstract that it could just as easily be interpreted as Red Barn,
plenty of horseshit within.
Thanks to Tim at EPA who sent in the
specimen.
