Good news for fans of giant baby heads. Gail and Ernst von Metzsch have donated the money to allow the Museum of Fine Arts to acquire the bronze sculptures created by Antonio Lopez Garcia. The heads, which are 8 feet tall and weigh 1.6 tons each, have been moved to the Fenway side of the museum in anticipation of this week's opening of the State Street Corporation doors.
