Barrel Monster Bust Cops: Man created public art with items swiped from construction site JUNE 12--A North Carolina man is facing criminal charges for creating an amusing piece of public art from construction barrels. Joseph Carnevale, 21, was nabbed Wednesday after a Raleigh Police Department investigation determined that he was responsible for the work (seen below) constructed May 31 on a roadway adjacent to North Carolina State University. Carnevale, pictured in the mug shot at right, was charged with misdemeanor larceny for allegedly building his orange monster from materials pilfered from a construction site. According to an arrest warrant, Carnevale "destroyed three road blocking barrels by cutting and screwing them together to form a statue." Police estimated that Carnevale's artwork caused $360 in damages to Hamlett Associates, the North Carolina construction company that owned the barrels. Carnevale is scheduled for a July 21 court appearance in Wake County. Pic will not post so here is the link. It is a must see.  http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2009/0612092monster1.html

I'll bet the company keeps the statue.
This guy is actually pretty good and charges should be dropped. |

as good and as little it may seem....he still stole from someone. I love work like that...but don't steal for it.
my ex husband is an artist (got an art scholarship in college) he made some....ummmm...interesting art lol. his last works were painting using dryer lint for a 3D type effect. now it would have been wrong of him to rummage through garbage on the curb and invade a house for dryer lint lol |

The construction company that owns the barrels have also conveyed to the media that they do not wish to have Carnevale charged and commended the artist for their work, whoever was responsible.

 stop changing while I'm posting lol
actually...if i was driving at night and saw that...i'd have an accident...first startled then trying to rubber neck lol IMO...he should have gotten his own or asked permission first. this is pretty cool but wasn't his property to take |

like I said...this may be a silly "crime" but theft is A criminal act in which property belonging to another is taken without that person's consent.
the company may not pursue it....but the law is the law no matter how silly the crime might be. the judge will probably just fine him to replace what he took |

just because it's not taken off the property...doesn't mean it's not theft. if someone takes a cigarette from me without permission and smokes it on property....still theft
but you HAVE to admit...that could cause accidents....whether rubbernecker or being startled.....i'd probably run off the road if i saw that lol |

it doesn't state how far someon has to take something lol. if someone takes lawn furniture from my front yard and i can see it in their yard....it's theft. even if it is just over the property line
can believe i'm arguing this though lol legally...he didn't own the material and had no rights to take it and use it for what he wants now...because the construction co doesn't want to press charges....it will probably be dismissed or something. but the law is the law and they did their jobs...even if it seems silly |

no they did not do their job
they charged the wrong crime and should be reprimanded for it and he should get off on a technicality who knows maybe that was the plan all along ================= so if some one is in your yard and they move your chair from being in the sun in your yard to being in the shade in your yard you say they are stealing your chair??????? |
