About this product

Product Information

In 1999, the cows stopped traffic all over Chicago. In 2000, the cows took over New York. Now for 2001, the cows are heading back West. Introducing CowParade Houston, a companion book that will keep the cows and their civic pride around long after the summer's events are over. As with every CowParade, the sculptures in CowParade Houston are totally original, created by local artists and sponsored by local businesses. Each city mounts a street- and plaza-side display of approximately 300 cows, every one of which is featured in full-color in the book. Each cow from Houston's Flamencow to Cowpernicus will be labeled with the artist, the sponsor, and the cow's location. Since its first staging in Zurich, Switzerland, in 1998, CowParade has been hugely successful in each of its host cities. Post-parade auctions of the sculptures generated $3.5 million in Chicago and $4 million in New York. Proceeds from CowParade Houston will go toward a $345 million expansion of The Texas Children's Hospital and Texas Children's Cancer Center.

Exactly as described except the first 50 pages had been torn out. Good price if it had been a complete book. Prompt shipping. Seller promptly and without hesitation or having to return the book, refunded me in full. I will (and have) used again.

  • Everybody smiles with cows!

    I am an artist and I love animals- farm animals have a very large part of my heart...I live on a farm! There are cows here- but they won't stand still long enough for me the paint them..and I mean REALLY paint them. You see about 5 years ago I was painting a picture that had wild Indian type horses and needed some models. Well I made up a big bucket of white water based paint (It would wash off and not hurt the horses ) and I painted my horses with white hand prints and other Indian markings. They were to pretty to be wild horses and they wouldn't jump the creek to have their photos taken- although they jumped the creek for the sweet feed I had for them.... you just can't work with animals...anyway.. back to the cows- I love each and every cow photo in the book and got lots of laughs and ...
