ʻO nā mea a pau o ka lehulehu ke kumu e hakakā ai, a ma San Diego , makemake ka makemake e holo i kaʻaoʻao haʻahaʻa. ʻAʻole hiki i nā kiʻi o nā iʻa a me nā lawaiʻa ke pale aku, akā,ʻo nā mea i piliʻole i ka'ōlohelohe, e hoʻopuka i ka leo o ka huhū. Aia kekahi kiʻi i hoʻohālikelikeʻia, ma mua o ka hoʻonāukiukiʻana, me kahi kiʻekiʻe hilahilaʻole. ʻO ka poʻe i kohoʻia i kahi hui nui, nā limahana hōkele, a me nā maʻi o ka Hale Kalipukaʻo Green Hospital e kuhikuhi ana i kahi kiʻi kiʻiʻia e like me "Scripps Turd" i hoʻomanaʻoʻia i kēia lā.
ʻO ka Hua'ōlelo'Apoli,' Okeanos , aka "The Scripps Turd"
ʻO ka puke kākau Scripps he kiʻi keleawe keleawe i kapaʻiaʻo'Okeanos e ke kiʻi penaʻo William Tucker. ʻO Tucker he mea pena kiʻi Pelekānia hou a he meaʻoihana kiʻi i hānauʻia ma Cairo,ʻAigupita . Ua heleʻo Tucker i ke Kulanui o'Oxford i ka makahiki 1955 a hiki i ka makahiki 1958 a ua hele houʻo ia e hana hou i nā kiʻi kālaiʻia ma ka Hale KulaʻoʻAmelika Martin i Lādana ma lalo o ke kumu a me ke kumu aʻoʻo Anthony Caro. Ua loaʻa mai iā ia he mau hōʻailona a me nā hanohano no kānaʻoihana, e like me:
- ʻO ka Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Arts i ka makahiki 1986
- ʻO ka International Sculpture Center's Achievement Achievement in Contemporary Sculpture i ka makahiki 2010
- ʻO ka inoa o ka National Academic ma ka National Academy Museum i ka makahiki 2011
Ma waena o 1988 a ka 2001, uaʻike pono nā poʻe e holo nei ma North Torrey Pines Road ma La Jolla i ke kiʻi nui a 13 hulina o Tucker i mua o ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike Green Green. Ma waho o ke kaʻina o ka lehulehu no ke kiʻi kiʻi, ua hāʻawiʻia ke kiʻi kiʻi 3,500-paona no $ 200,000 i ka makahiki 1987.
Ua loaʻa mai ke kālā mai nā mea kōkua mai i ka hanohano o Frank J. Dixon, ke Luna o ka Hale Hoʻokū no nā makahiki he 25.
Ua kapaʻo Tucker i keʻano hana ma hope o ke akua Helene o nā muliwai a me nā kai,'Okeanos, aʻo Ὠκεανός (Ōkeanós), ka mea i kapaʻiaʻo Oceanus. ʻO'Okeanos he Titan e pani ana i ka moana aʻo ia ke keiki hiapo a Uranus a me Gaia.
Ua'ōleloʻo Tūcker i keʻano, iā ia, ua'ōleloʻia kahi paeʻana o ka moana, a ua hoʻoheneheneʻia e nā mea hōʻihewa i ka wā i hōʻikeʻia ai.
Ka hōʻino a me ka loiloi houʻana i ka hōʻailona Mai ka makahiki 1988-2001
ʻO Michael Brenson, ka mea kākau mua o The New York Times, i kākauʻia no'Okeanos i ka makahiki 1988:
"ʻO ke kiʻi ka pīhoihoi e lele mai ana mai ka honua mai a lele e like me ka nalu."ʻAʻole makemake ka wai, akā,ʻo nā kapua a me nā mea kanu a me nā lālā kanaka. "
ʻAʻole,ʻaʻohe manaʻo o ka lehulehu. ʻAʻole iʻoluʻoluʻo Edythe H. Scripps, a no ka hoʻokiʻekiʻeʻana o ka "The Turd" i ka makahiki 2001. "Ua ho'āʻo wau e hoʻopau i kēlā mea no nā makahiki," i kākauʻo Scripps i ka Union-Tribune i ka makahiki 2001. "Heʻoiaʻiʻo ʻoluʻolu hoʻi eʻike i ka heleʻana. "No laila, ua hoʻoneʻeʻia ke kiʻi kiʻi i kahi wahi iʻikeʻoleʻia ma kaʻaoʻao hikina o ka Scripps Research Institute, ma ke kihi o John Jay Hopkins Drive a me ka Hale Hoʻokolokolo Atamics Nui. ka nui o $ 40,000.
ʻAʻole noa ke komoʻana no kaʻike, aʻo ka'Okeanos kahi i loaʻa ma kahi i hōʻikeʻia i mua no ka poʻe e noʻonoʻo nei he'ōpana hana.
