Forever Marilyn, the giant statue with skirt fluttering

Finally the veil has been lifted from the statue Forever Marilyn, a huge statue that depicts the beautiful Marilyn Monroe during the famous scene of skirt fluttering. I'll have to say, I think ugly this statue in the world, missed a 9-metre statue depicting Marilyn Monroe? I am a bit puzzled, the idea could be cute but something is wrong, Marilyn was too beautiful, elegant and graceful to become a massive statue of 15 tons.

This statue is located in Chicago and stands on Michigan Avenue, obviously all the tourists have not lost an opportunity to get the photo, compare the piedone Marilyn with them, look at what's under the chat skirt, I'm not sure there is something that doesn't make me rejoice at the sight of these photos.

The artwork was created by Seward Johnson, a contemporary artist who has had the opportunity to exhibit her work in Chicago, in a central and much visited place. The statue will be in Chicago until spring 2012.

The famous scene of skirt fluttering was revived in the film ' When his wife is on holiday ', Billy Wilder, 1955, is the symbol of an era, a seductive and charming retro style that today has been supplanted by the provocation and from the vulgarity.

Before the dress of this famous scene that has been won at auction, now this giant statue, there is something deeply sad in this speculation.
