Hey, eep you’re hands to yourself!
The New York Post reports that the talk about having your, er, ego stroked!
Fernando Botero thinks people's touchy-feely reaction to his 12-foot-tall, bronze sculpture of Adam at the Time Warner Center mall is "very good."
Passers-by can't seem to resist the corpulent (this is Botero, after all) but underendowed nude gracing the Shops at Columbus Circle's atrium.
In fact, so many hands have rubbed Adam's penis that it has turned a shade of gold, making it stand out against the rest of the statue's dark brown.
"That people react to the sculpture and want to interact with it is very good," Botero said yesterday.
