Also individualistic behaviour was not very much appreciated. So a sculpture garden like this should be very uncommon in the view of authorities, so why would they bother to take care of it? <br />I am very well. Spring was here actually last week. Hope you will manage to keep a good balance between all activities in your daily life. Take care!henk van eshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05112057600333088287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-449219498394377859.post-48433125812339977892010-03-28T03:44:41.243+02:002010-03-28T03:44:41.243+02:00How awful that the place was robbed and vandalized...How awful that the place was robbed and vandalized, what a shame it couldn't be protected or preserved in a museum setting...<br /><br />But how lucky we are that Henk is there to track these down for us...<br /><br />Henk, I hope all is well with you. I've been crazy busy between work and blogging and family and life in general... but it is ALWAYS a pleasure to drop in here and see where you have been digging in the garden of outsider art...Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12622587942009516590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-449219498394377859.post-89341382636894040792010-03-27T18:01:49.553+01:002010-03-27T18:01:49.553+01:00I loved the photos, so it's nice that they'...I loved the photos, so it's nice that they've come forward somehow... how sad that there's nothing else left of Rudov's scupture park though.yew tree nightshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14159879472613574800noreply@blogger.com
