…at the under-construction SAM/Paul Allen waterfront sculpture park: British wire-sculptor Antony Gormley’s vision for a 12-meter-tall “Ejaculating Man!” (Scroll toward the bottom of the page.)

The concept didn’t make it past the selection committee, for fairly obvious reasons. Still, Gormley’s philosophical about the idea:

“The figure was meant to give an 11-second ejaculation of salt sea-water every five minutes, so there would’ve been a lot of people standing around waiting for it. I intended it as an ironic comment on the male figure in relation to the whole idea of a fountain, because everyone knows that the fountain is a male fantasy of permanent ejaculation. I wanted it to be a celebratory piece, but I don’t know if the feminists would find it offensive.”
