great piece! i find in rather interesting that as “unconventional” as andy warhol was – what a rather bland tombstone…. apparently whoever buried him didn’t share his view on life… if i had to have a tombstone over my rotting corpse i would have a boulder with a sticker on it… something like this piece I did a few years ago. http://www.justynntyme.com/gallery03/object08.jpg

Caught between a rock and a soft place there I see Justynn – the dichotomy of the piece is engaging indeed. Would that be known as a concrete work or would you have to re-brand as a “brick work” I ponder.
Good point about the terminally bland AW headstone, it kind of demeans his flamboyant and controversial life somewhat.
The maestro himself, Marcel Duchamp, had chiseled into his particular monument …. ” DEATH – after all, it only ever happens to other people doesn’t it? ”
True genius would seem to be irrepressible, even in dearth of earthly life 🙂

I thought it would be creepy, but it isn’t at all. I would commission this sort of thing for my own tombstone and make hubby hang it over his bed lol
