President heads. Giant President Heads

After our Texas road trip, this stop is the one we cannot stop talking about! It is seriously impressive and worth stopping at! [Courtney, 08/06/2011]
President heads in the Adickes lot. Giant President Heads

Very nice sculptures, but not displayed well. They were behind locked fences, but visible from outside. Worth the trip. [Norma E, 01/30/2010]

[RA: We like the hit-or-miss randomness of this unofficial attraction at the artist's studio, really just the staging yard for his sculptures. You'd have to pay admission elsewhere to see the heads nicely arranged on little patches of grass!]

Giant President Heads

David Adicke's studio in downtown Houston. There are about 20 or so of his giant president heads in the parking lot of his studio. The gates are open all of the time for anyone to come in and look around. There is also a giant sculpture of an old phone. [Rachelle Vasquez, 06/27/2004]

[RA: Adickes created the giant Sam Houston statue, and the Presidents Parks in South Dakota and Virginia. The sculptures in the lot change depending on Adickes' current projects.]
