Artists
have decorated full size fibreglass cows which have been exhibited in
prominent outdoor sites in various cities. The originals have mostly
been auctioned for charity but the cows live on as miniatures.
We are
now stocking a range of beautifully finished Cow Parade ceramic and
resin miniatures of these cows. Each one is about 15 or 16cm long (over
6 inches) and they make wonderful decorative objects. We
also have Mini Cow Parade figures. these are about 7cm (3 inches) long
and are made of resin. Like the other cow parade figures these are supplied
boxed. The Mini Cow Parade cows are in a display box with the cow visible
through a clear plastic window.
Cow Parades
have taken place all around the world. The idea originated with a Swiss
sculptor Peter Knapp in 1998. He developed the idea after seeing an
exhibition of decorated lions in Zurich; lions are the city's emblem.
Peter organised an event called Land in Sicht (Countryside in View)
in which decorated cows were placed in prominent public spaces in the
city.
Cow Parades
have taken place in several UK cities including London, Manchester and
Edinburgh. There have also been Cow Parades in many cities in North
and South America, Europe and other cities worldwide.
