The rapidly growing economy of China loves to flex its muscles in the world whether it be a new giant aircraft carrier or the spectacular 2008 Olympic Games and it is no slouch when it comes to creating world beating statues of the Buddha . This huge bronze colossus stands - when you include the lotus flower base at over 100 metres and is on the shores of Lake Taihu in Wuxi. Gotta to go at some time in my life for sure.
“Your work is carved out of agony as a statue is carved out of marble.”
