So the story goes, in the year 2000 New York (and many other major cities) held a public art event known as the CowParade in which they gave numerous white cow sculptures to various artists and groups around the city. The cows were individually decorated and each one was then displayed for all to enjoy at multiple locations in NYC.

Someone had the idea to give Mr. Lynch a cow to embellish as he saw fit but sadly, his submission was deemed “too shocking” and was never included in the final displayed work.

Thought I’d share this in light of today’s news of him passing. The man was a mad-genius and I for one will surely miss his efforts.

That's a goregrind album cover if I've ever seen one.

It looks like it sprained its back leg, the poor cow.
