southsider2k5 Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 http://www.wbbm780.com/95-Foot-Popsicle-Pl...um-Park/1163629 95-Foot Popsicle Planned For Millennium Park CHICAGO (WBBM) -- A Canadian artist will be painting with Zamboni and blow torch this winter as he brings a 95-foot long "Popsicle" to Millennium Park. As part of the Chicago winter festival, Gordon Halloran has been commissioned to paint and sculpt a 95-foot long colored ice wall to reflect in the bean, as well as a flat painting of the Loop on the Millennium Park Ice Rink along Michigan Avenue. Halloran's art exhibit is set to stand even if February is warm, the artist says. A "Lego system" of aluminum plates back-up the ice and when the system is turned it can create a su-zero temperature in minutes, thus preserving the exhibit if warm temperatures arrive. And should frost dull the color -- Halloran will apply a blowtorch to gloss up the surface he's preemptively calling the Popsicle which opens February 1st in Millennium Park.

jackie hayes Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Skipping the triple dare is a slight breach of etiquette. Skipping the dare, the double dare, and the double dog dare as well is downright gauche. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilMonkey Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Can't find money for the CTA (or any other program that has budget shortfalls), but can fund a f*cking popsicle? Yeah, that works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
