SALT LAKE CITY -- A Utah state park moved an American Indian-inspired statue of a humpbacked flute player yesterday after objections it was offensive because the male figure is anatomically correct.
Officials at Edge of the Cedars State Park moved the sticklike figure from in front of its museum to a spot behind it so it can't been seen from the street, the park manager said.
The sculpture is a modern interpretation of a Hopi symbol of a flute player. It has welcomed visitors to the park for 19 years.
