I was in Dallas over the weekend for a wedding, and while driving through downtown, I noticed that Robert Irwin’s Portal Park Piece is completely covered with graffiti tags (wish I’d gotten a better pic — this is enhanced to better see the tag).

While I do have a place in my heart for graffiti walls in public spaces, I don’t think highly of vandals marring one of the best public sculpture works in town. City of Dallas, you need to get a preservationist out there ASAP.

In the process of googling the work, I came across this excellent resource for Dallas art lovers: The Dallas Foundation’s online Walking Sculpture Tour.
