Giant gator art

( Taimy Alvarez, Sun Sentinel / December 5, 2012 )

The Andrews Avenue bridge opens for a giant alligator head making it's way threw downtown Fort Lauderdale down the New River Wednesday afternoon. The 40-ton behemoth, titled "Floating Tile Art: Gator in the Bay," is made up entirely of reclaimed parts, including items found in junkyards. Its menacing teeth are made from roofing material. The barge art will work its way south to its final destination on Biscayne Bay, where it will float around the area throughout Art Basel.
