The
department issued a short response after an arts group called Indecline
hoisted a life-size, naked Trump statue in Union Square park Thursday.
"NYC
Parks stands firmly against any unpermitted erection in city parks, no
matter how small," said Sam Biederman, a parks spokesman.
Indecline,
described by The Guardian as an anarchist group, installed nude Trump
statues in other cities around the country, including San Francisco, Los
Angeles, Cleveland and Seattle, the paper reported.
A
video on Indecline's website shows the creators crafting the statue,
using paintbrushes and watersprays to mold the clay body and carving
"Ginger" into the footboard.
Other
aggressive art from the group, according to its site, includes artwork
along the US-Mexico border saying "Rape Trump" and what they claim to be
the "largest illegal graffiti piece in the world" along an abandoned
runway in California.
