Holy smokes, readers. Cupid's Span, the love-it-or-hate-it-but-you-really-should-love-it-since-it's-chock-full-of-whimsical-glee, is almost back to its normal self. Over the past few months, part of the piece has been covered by scaffolding, but according to RinconHillSF, "the scaffolding around the top half of Cupid’s Span in Rincon Park appears to be coming down - unveiling an evenly colored top half of the bow." Exciting stuff! And according to Curbed, the park surrounding Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen's masterpiece (oh, you heard us) is "Rincon Hill's favorite spot for open-air drinkage." Nice.



yay! This is right outside my condo. Color me in the "love it" camp, but how can you get mad at a sculture that looks like that?
so it looks just like it did before?
what was the point of the scaffolding then?
a seismic retrofit?
It got a fresh coat of paint where the scaffolding had covered it. The other half (the bottom, if you will) still looks a bit dirty. Hopefully, Cupid's Span's bottom will get cleaned .... soon. :P
