“Dear PoPville,
Any idea what these are? The camels at City Center and the other in the park across from Farmers and Distillers.”

“The Fancy Animal Carnival is in town! I came across several pieces of this outdoor art exhibit by Taiwanese contemporary artist Hung Yi. It looks like it just came here from NYC.”
From a press release:
“The unveiling of the Fancy Animal Carnival, which is bringing five larger-than-life animal sculptures by renowned Taiwanese artist Hung Yi installed at CityCenterDC and in the DowntownDC Business Improvement District (BID). Through a partnership with the National Park Service, the Government of the District of Columbia and Gould/Oxford Properties, the sculptures will be on display for six months at CityCenterDC, Chinatown Park and Herald Square. Programming and other activities related to the sculptures will be offered to the public throughout the animals’ six-month stay in Washington.”
