ART makes communities desirable and contributes to a thriving infrastructure of business and commerce. Other cities have transformed broken neighborhoods into wonderful communities, lowering crime, increasing business, rebuilding dilapidated homes and buildings all through arts initiatives. Do you know how much public sculpture has cost those communities? Millions, not thousands. And it's worth it because now people want to open business there, people want to live there. They would be thrilled to only pay $40 grand for a piece of work by an established and sought after artist like Noblique. Unfortunately Becker had a wonderful plan but was otherwise not a wonderful person. I hope a future Mayor of Racine will continue this vital effort to rebuild your community through arts and culture. It simple works.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-22016705984448900182010-03-31T10:32:49.360-05:002010-03-31T10:32:49.360-05:00you people in racine are just so dumb it hurts are...you people in racine are just so dumb it hurts are is a subjective thing u will never get<br /> artists there if you act like this no one wants to be there when everyone knows they will get beat up for there expressionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-51136832146770311632009-12-17T14:16:14.236-06:002009-12-17T14:16:14.236-06:00Hello

The Nic Noblique piece however, is a poor attempt at a landmark sculpture, is way too small for the spot it has, and serves as a symbol of our city getting ripped off, both at day and night.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-34133595767059457032009-08-17T07:58:47.563-05:002009-08-17T07:58:47.563-05:00I love public art.

Whatever you may think about the ex-mayor's wish to make Uptown an artist haven, Racine should be honored to have Isaiah's work here. Art is an important part of a community. I am looking forward to watching the documentary about him.Nancinoreply@blogger.com
