I like it! We're not installing a wall: it's a very long work of art. It will be like the work of Christo and Jeanne-Claude -- except made of concrete and steel.
What a snide, self-righteous, condescending piece of drivel. All he really has to say is that "Trump is Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin, all rolled into one." Really insightful, eh?
I, for one, expect leftists nationwide to demand sections of the new Wall for political indoctrination art exhibits, sort of an antithesis to those places that have bits of the Berlin Wall on display. And not one will see the depravity in the comparison.
The wall will be a monument to our border. It will let the world know we will remain a shining light on the hill and we will not succumb to the soulless globalists that want to destroy our country and turn it into Mexico.
Mussolini built the Coliseum? Seems to be implied by the footage selected in the film. Pace Saltz, people who have actually studied Italian architecture under Mussolini use terms like "healthy pluralism." https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2016/jun/01/the-dictator-who-failed-to-dictate-free-range-architecture-under-mussolini
Hopefully, this will be an impetus to get third-world environments of trouble and misfortune, and anti-nativist advocates, to pause and review emigration reform and immigration reform, respectively.

Sure beats Michael Heizer's "City".
Minimalist sculpture lends itself to border walling.
Consider Richard Serra's Tilted Arc.
What next? The wall becomes a tourist destination like that one in China!
"Trump’s Border Wall Prototypes Are Minimalist Art — and Should Be a National Monument."
Two observations:
1.) NY Mag makes it "Trump's Border Wall."
2.) Does not compare it to "Obama's Border Fence" as minimalist art.
There are earth artists who aren't minimalists. Here's Andy Goldsworthy's beautiful "Storm King Wall" at Storm King Art Center:
Storm King Wall was originally imagined as a 750-foot-long dry stone wall snaking through the woods, but when it reached its planned endpoint, at the foot of a large oak tree, it seemed only natural to the artist for the wall to continue downhill to a nearby pond. Soon after the wall’s trajectory was extended again; it now emerges from the other side of the pond and continues uphill to Storm King’s western boundary at the New York State Thruway—totaling 2,278 feet overall.
How about a border labyrinth?

Hey, now we can use Arts funding for something useful.
MAGA!
You know what is even more artsy? Concertina wire. And gun turrets.

It started off like it could be a fun observation, a sort of found art, but Godwin prevailed. What bilge.
And what's this guy know? Never heard of Brutalism? It's making a comeback, you know...NYT says so.

Witty! Now build the damn wall.
