OK, let’s face it, some of the very best writing and ideas are currently collected on the Best of Craigslist. That brings us to this late breaking piece titled “vomiting man/sprinkler yard art”. I’m not sure if this is a living sculpture as post-911 commentary on the fears of Americans and their retreat to their homes embodied by this una bomber doppelganger or another emblem of the ex-urban love affair of all things yard kitsch (comme Cadillac Graveyard) or simply one of the the strangest ways to confront the stranglehold of Duchamp’s readymade Fountain on the modern artistic consciousness.

This gem was forwarded to me by my colleague Karena Bennett.

Vomiting Man/Sprinkler Yard Art is here, and in real life he is in glorious Colville, Washington, which is only 215 miles away, garden-art shoppers. He is available!

From the ad, first posted July 14:

I built this guy last Friday & used him to water the lawn all day Saturday. People driving past, gawked at him like they had never seen a guy vomiting a steady stream of water all over the place... At 1st, I thought I might just keep him, but then thought somebody else might be more "into him" then I am. So am advertising again, and udating this ad on Friday the 17th. He is life size & made from articulated steel rods w/a detachable ceramic head. The top of which is actually a planter that can have plants planted in it. He can be posed in pretty much any postion a real human can pose in.
He would be good for filling a swimming pool. I think if you dressed him like a cowboy & wired him to the fence, he'd make a pretty good stock tank filler too. The kids would probably like to run through his barf on hot days...You could dress him in womens clothes & put a wig on him. Making it a lady puker instead.
