Happy New Year to YOU.

This is an image taken some months back.
A view from Vågen, the harbor area here in Stavanger.

We are soon starting a new year.

Celebrate and have fun tonight !

On my way to work...

A nice view on my way to work this morning.
Queen Victoria was docking, and the other cruise ship Deutschland was also heading into port.
We had a grey morning, but later we had blue skies and sunshine!:)

If you click on the words after "labels" under the text, you will see more statues, all made as a copy of the artist Anthony Gormley.

Like it or not, here is one that was put up outside the old school "Solvang". Later 40 million kroner was spent on making the school in to a kindergarden.

Storm on it`s way today?

Well, it was very windy, as you can see here from the area near the fish market.

Someone seems to have had a need to add a special touch to one of Antony Gormley`s "Broken Column" statues.

- Hope you have a nice weekend!

Now, before you start groaning, this is not a continuation of yesterdays theme, although I do admit that there are some similarities here!
This is one more of the statues by Anthoney Gormley, and is close to the Police station, with a view over a churchyard.

Another "Broken Column" guy, who is standing close to the bus stop outside the Stavanger Museum. More photos and info, if you click on the labels under this text.

Spring has sprung. Tables and chairs are put out outside the fish-market. One of the Anthony Gormley statues from "Broken Column" is taking a look out over the harbor. And there are some nice colorful plants around. Let's hope that the nice sunny days will continue.

(Click under at "labels"on "Broken Column" to see more statues.)

This is my posting number 200 :-)

I will use this opportunity to say THANK YOU to my followers and everyone else who has taken the time to leave comments, which are always very much appreciated.

Todays photo is from Rogaland Museum of Fine Arts. It is one of the statues from "Broken Column" ( Click on the labels to see a few more of the 23 sculptures. ) They are all a copy of the artist Anthoney Gormley, and they are all placed facing 10 degrees west.

GOD JUL / MERRY CHRISTMAS to all of you!

I hope you all have a good festive holiday wherever you are in the world!

"Broken Column" is the name of art made by Antoney Gormley from England.

In Stavanger we have 23 of his statues, like this one which I took a photo of at the stairs leading from/to the parking area at Valberget.

Some like it, - some don`t. 

I guess no other art in Stavanger has ever been discussed and argued more than this. One statue is inside a classroom, and one is even inside a private home..... I will let you meet some of the other "rusty men" later.
