Bad Art Or Not?

Narrow Are The Vessels
Anselm Kiefer

Here is the installation permanently moved to the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art
MoCA

Some information on the structure: it's 80 feet long and consists of six tons of salvaged concrete slabs. The collector, who remains anonymous, had it in his yard in Connecticut until he was sued by the Fairfield Historic District Commission because technically and legally, Narrow are the Vessels is a structure of its own, with regard to its mass and gravity. The collector, who had to temporarily close the street to allow five large flatbed trucks to deliver the slabs to his property, didn’t object to the term “structure” and didn’t fight the case. Instead, he transferred it to Massachusetts, a state with less-imposed structure laws, for it to be displayed in the Museum of Contemporary Art. The collector remained anonymous but did say he decided to replace that piece with another piece that can be moved more easily.

I saw this structure on a visit to MoCA last year. I'll share my impressions in comments.

note: I purposely did not link the artist to a web reference because I think it may affect your impressions. I knew nothing about Kiefer when I saw the installation. I can't wait to read Steve's comment on this one! :-)

Bad art or not?
You weight in.
(no pun intended)
