So, J. Carter Brown, director of the National Gallery of Art, doesn't consider the Brodin statue of an army nurse worthy of a place in the Vietnam Memorial site. "The poor nurse," he said, "looks like she's about to upchuck." (Given the conditions nurses face in war, that seems appropriate and artistically faithful to me!)
However, although Brown finds the statue unacceptable for the Vietnam War Memorial, he's willing to include it in the All-Women's Memorial planned for Arlington Cemetery.
