Art by Accident inspires Art (and more)

Continuing the art by accident theme. It goes even further… the 29,000 floating rubber duckies and bath toys had inspired at least one artist to a contribution:


Artist: Florentijn Hofman
http://www.florentijnhofman.nl
Title: Rubber duck
Year: 2007
Location: river the Loire, France
Dimensions: 26 x 20 x 32 meters
Materials: inflatable, rubber coated PVC, pontoon and generator
Production: le Lieu Unique and the Biennial Estuaire

No offense Mr. Florentijn. Even though your duck is absolutely HUGE, i’m kinda partial to the accidental version that inspired so many, including you. After viewing the headlines on a “rubber duck” search for an appropriate link to use, I’m tempted to declare this the Year of the Rubber Duck.
