Which of the following is true about Trinity Root?
Sculptor Steve Tobin said, "I’m still in shock," after he discovered that Lower Manhattan’s Trinity Church had relocated and damaged a public sculpture that he designed and produced in 2005 as a memorial to the victims of September 11.
Trinity Root, a bronze replica of a large sycamore tree destroyed in the terror attacks on the twin towers, was installed in a courtyard at Trinity Church, several blocks away from its original location at one of its parishes, St. Paul’s Chapel. The site-specific work was eighteen feet tall, twenty-five feet wide, and weighed thousands of pounds. In order to create the piece, Tobin said he brought the original stump and tree roots to his Pennsylvania studio for casting. The artist paid for the $ 330, 000 project himself, and said that he had to take out a home-equity loan to cover the cost.
The church brought the piece to a conference center it owns in West Cornwall, Conneticut. Tobin said the church sent him pictures of the piece that showed significant damage. Nathan Brockman, a spokesman for the church, said, "We have great respect for Tobin and the 9/11 museum. " He admitted that the sculpture had been broken, but said it was repairable.
The church, which owns the statue, had mailed the artist documents that once signed would transfer ownership of the piece to him and would ship it to Tobin at the church’s expense. Tobin said, "I didn’t want to sign any document because of the condition of the piece," and maintained that it should never have been moved in the first place. "It was made for the people who were affected by the events. It’s where the tree was. It was for those who had suffered. "
选项
A、His works had been relocated without his permission.
B、He paid much more money on this works than expected.
C、His works had been broken by the church.
D、His works were considered too big to repair.
答案
C
解析
从“Sculptor Steve Tobin said,“I’m still in shock,”after he discovered that Lower Manhattan’s Trinity Church had relocated and damaged a public sculpture that he designed and produced in 2005 as a memorial to the victims of September 11…”可以知道,Tobin作为雕像的作者对于三一教堂搬运和毁坏他设计并制造的雕像一事颇为不满。文章接下来又谈了Tobin对于教堂的诸多安排都有异议。因此选项C的叙述都与原文相符。
