Couto Bros + Mural = FUN |
For the Milwaukeeans who are still sour because of an $800,000 public art project that was scrapped recently, or because of a bronze erection of Henry Winkler that cost the tax payers approximately $85,000, you can now quit your pissing and moaning because there's a new artistic spectacle in town that even Scott Walker would be proud of.

Now guess how many dollars this public art piece is going to cost the tax payers:
Zero.
