Remarks:
The
sculpture
is one of four pieces acquired through the Inaugural
Outdoor
Sculpture
Exhibition in 1988 and was a gift of Woods Charitable Fund. The three supporting pieces of the
sculpture
were originally shimmed for extra stability but the shims have been lost through the years. The original color of this piece was black but the color faded rapidly to a deep gray. The piece was repainted in 1988 to a much lighter shade of gray without the artist's approval. The
sculpture
was originally adjacent to a large reflecting pool, which has since been filled in.
