There’s a new sculpture on the closed stretch of JFK Drive, and it came from Burning Man. “Over Ruled” will spend a year in Golden Gate Park.
The newest piece of public art to take up space on Golden Gate Park’s Golden Mile — the glorious stretch of John F. Kennedy Drive closed to cars — is here, and it came from Burning Man. Fully assembled across from the Skatin’ Place, the 20-foot-high fabric and metal sculpture reads “NO DANCING.” Cyclists whom SFGATE saw passing by it Friday morning read the words aloud and chuckled as they coasted along with cameras up, snapping photos.
The anecdotes are meant to shift viewers from joyous rebellion to “genuine contemplation of how rules shape our society,” says a statement on the website for Looking Up Arts Foundation, which created the installation. “Over Ruled” replaces the decidedly less deep, but no less inspiring, Doggie Diner heads. These historic landmarks spent several months nearby on the Golden Mile this year, during which one was dramatically set ablaze.
