George Segal-like Merchants At The Chiang Mai City Arts and Cultural Centre

Remember the American Pop Art sculptor, George Segal? He liked to create genre scenes in which the props might be real and the figures were left as raw, white plaster. The Chiang Mai City Arts and Cultural Centre appears to have been inspired by Segal's style.
