| This gem was taken at one of the many “Museum Without Walls” exhibits here at Tufts University. Leslie Fry’s statue of the “Colossal Acorn Head” is a widespread mystery on campus and a prime spot for a museum selfie. The panel next to the statue indicating the artist asks the question: “Why is this head in a flower bed?”, and provides a link to the Tufts Art department website to find out. It invites its curious audience (aka every single Tufts student) to delve deeper into the mystery of the omnipotent Acorn Head while offering a great opportunity for all students to share in the universal question of why the f*** there’s a giant bronze demi-nut in the middle of our campus. |
