- Appears a marginal case. It's a set of simple wood beams and very simple colouring, with the colours being too simple to be an "artwork". Installations are always debatable, one gate would be a garden decoration not art, there's some point between having one single colour gate and several next to each other becomes "art" and that point has no easy definition. --Fæ (talk) 14:21, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Fæ: I doubt TOO is a factor here. American sculptures are known to obtain copyright even if those are too simple. The fact that much of Claes Oldenburg's copyrighted sculptures depict simple, everyday objects mean the TOO for American public art is too low.
