Art and history are inexorable. Removing the plaque would merely change the asthetic.

  And your point is?

    That the statue was still created as a corporate advertisement, regardless of whether the plaque is present.

      A lot of great art was originally sponsored/commissioned by wealthy corporate benefactors (for example the Catholic Church and nobility in 15th century Italy). I think it's important that the beholder/public in general is aware of the providence of a piece of art, yet I doubt banning corporate sponsorship of art would be a net positive for society.

        It certainly wouldn't be, though in this particular case it could be argued that corporate sponsorship renders the work tasteless.
