Cadillac Ranch over 50 years is 'both interesting and odd' to Ant Farm artist (amarillo.com)
“It is both interesting and odd to me; it is kind of understandable as it has become much more popular than we ever imagined it could become,” he said. “It is a different object now.

The Amarillo Museum of Art has done an excellent job bringing this project to fruition.”
