Although the work does deal with the human figure, it appears
to have no humanist allusions/context, such as fs plain in the works
of other plastic/plaster figure sculptors such as Duane Hanson,
Edward Kienholz, and George Segal. Preat's work seems nothing
short of a wild, grotesque and fetishized product of personal imag-
ination.

It is disturbing to see this presented in the guise of art,
in the public place, and supported by the formalist aesthetic
rationale. It demonstrates yet again the ludicrous and inadequate
character of formalism as ultimate criteria in art.
