Miró?


Is that a Miró sculpture we keep seeing? It's the huge one we see at the beginning and near the end, the one of a woman's lower half with jagged teeth around the... well, um... naughty bits. It certainly seems gaudy and colorful enough, but I can't find anything to confirm it.

It's called "hon" Swedish for "she" and was built for an exhibition in Sweden in 1966. It was designed by Niki de Saint Phalle along with Jean Tinguely and Per Olof Ultvedt.

Saint Phalle created some really imaginary and colorful sculptures.

You can see a pic of the "Hon" here. I think it must be from the exhibition.
