Statue of Charlie Kirk Costs Sculptor Everything | UK News
Description
A New York sculptor poured $100K of his own money into a life-size statue of Charlie Kirk, hoping to celebrate free speech or honor the late far-right figure—only to face ridicule, disrespect threats, and near-total financial collapse. Despite breaking his foot while working on it, the Italian artist insists the statue is “blessed,” not cursed, and is now crowdfunding desperately for $150K to tour it. With just $1,400 raised and zero buyers, he’s eyeing a Times Square debut on the anniversary of Kirk’s death—desperate for attention, cash, and maybe just a little respect.
