Sand Sculpture: Christ welcomes you to the 2016 Olympics
Posted in 2016 Olympics, Rio de Janeiro, World Cup 2014 on 23. Jul, 2010
Hi all,
I hope that you are winding down a great week. My week was busy, but productive.
The World Cup has come and (mercifully) gone. Rio is now looking to the next games, in 2014. And on the heels of World Cup 2014 are the 2016 Olympics. There is lots of debate about whether Rio will be ready. (Same for the World Cup; see my post from last week.)
But at least one guy is ready. Strolling down Copacabana Beach you will find a few artists who work in – what else? – sand. One of my favorite sculptures shows Christ with his arms outstretched, welcoming all. It´s not that I am religious; I just marvel at what holds his arms on!
Christ welcomes you to the 2016 Olympics in Rio
I have much to do today, so I bid you “Ate mais, gente!”
More soon. Lots more if I am able to resurrect my Mac again.
Um abraço!
John
