Tourists have their own rituals to attract good luck, and many of us are willing to travel for this. Even if you hide it, everyone in their soul wants to touch a small miracle. One day, finding ourselves in “magical places”, we realize that we have attracted good luck to ourselves. cool18.com
In my last blog I described the history of the Little Mermaid monument in Denmark. What about New York? All About Adam and Eve, located on the first floor of the Columbus Circle store. They are so amazing and attractive! You can’t resist and want to touch them! New Yorkers do the same thing, maybe even more than tourists: they just stand and watch for a while. cool18.com
The 12-foot-tall sculpture of Adam and Eve is the work of Colombian artist Fernando Botero, world-renowned for his full human figures. I had the opportunity to meet the artist at his personal exhibition in New York. He was very nice and humble and gave me an autograph.
When they build and decorate these amazing restaurants, shops and entertainment venues, they may not realize that they are also creating a tourist attraction. But they did it! cool18.com
Just ask some of the 17 million people who visit the Columbus Circle store each year. Many people seemed unable to walk past the giant nude statue in the lobby without being patted, touched, grabbed, or rubbed. cool18.com
The couple's private parts were so worn that their bronze color had turned to gold, proving that this fashion spot has more high-end goods than stores and boutiques. What is this if not public art? cool18.com
The New York Times is right when it says people touch them "because it's fun." Because it's the right mix of naughty and not-so-naughty. cool18.com
After all, art is meant to be experienced and evoke emotions. Hey, why don't we do it - rub Adam and Eve's private parts with our own hands at the Columbus Circle store? Just apply the sanitizer on your palms, touch it, and make a wish, and luck will smile on you!
