Hideous Gospodor Monuments

An honest description of these "sculptures" has to include the word "hideous".

Dominic Gospodor, the eccentric bachelor who spent over $1 million building the Gospodor Monuments, recently died at age 86. He never told anyone why he built them, or exactly what he meant to say with their peculiar combination of Mother Teresa, Native Americans, Jesus, Holocaust victims, an eagle, and an enormous weather vane.

Mr. Gospodor reportedly wrote in his will that upon his death a nonprofit organization had to be found to take over ownership of the monuments. But he also reportedly left no money to maintain them, or even to pay for the electricity that lights them at night. The monuments are made of rustproofed steel, however, and should be around for a while.
