Can't resist. I've glimpsed the golden toilet in the Guggenheim, but didn't realize one could use it. If I had known it was a temporary exhibit I would have lined up for it.

Ugh, ugly & crass. What happened to elegant & genteel ? And what sort of cleaner for it would you use ? Cuz I'm sure Limescale cleaner would not do it any good !

Some of those buildings in the first picture are pretty modern looking for 1944, but I'm struggling to recognize the exact location.

That looks like the Rockefeller Center in the top right of the first image, if I'm not mistaken.

Never seen it from that angle.  Had to search a bit to find a proper shot, but yes, you are correct!

Somehow I thought it dated from 1950...

I also looked up some photos to try to confirm, but it's the line formed by the setbacks of the side portion when seen against the rest of the building that gave it away. Has always stood out to me for some reason. The Daily News Building has something similar but with fewer individual "steps".

Ouch, that looks rather painful, but his blank stare at the camera is almost as off putting.

Kind of gimmicky though, aren't they? At least presented in that way.

Of course they're gimmicky. What other reason to do it? It's performance art. And damn fine work, I must say.
