Objects in a park suggest static repose rather than any ongoing dialectic. Parks are finished landscapes for finished art .
There is no more reason to think that they expected the world to remain static than there is to think that any of us holds a crystal ball.

Instead of this absurd division into sexes they ought to class people as static and dynamic.
Architects in the past have tended to concentrate their attention on the building as a static object. I believe dynamics are more important: the dynamics of people, their interaction with spaces and environmental condition.

I make static art, not dynamic art. That's what I do.
In some mysterious way woods have never seemed to me to be static things. In physical terms, I move through them; yet in metaphysical ones, they seem to move through me.

All science is static in the sense that it describes the unchanging aspects of things.

Who wouldn't like to give up normal life? I mean, normal life, you know, is the second worst thing to death itself. I think normality is something that makes everything very static, and I try to make my days, my daily routines, as uneven and rich as possible.

A game of chess is a visual and plastic thing, and if it isn't geometric in the static sense of the word, it is mechanical, since it moves. It's a drawing; it's a mechanical reality.
