Remarks:
This sculpture was created as part of a sculpture symposium sponsored by the Mayor's Committee on Art and Culture in the summer of 1977. The project planned for four sculptures (only two of the four remain; see Patapsco Delta record number 87870005) by four different artists to be placed as markers at entranceways to the city. The sculpture was moved in 1991 due to highway construction, but was conserved and reinstalled south of its original site in April 1992. IAS files contain a newspaper article from The Sun (Baltimore, MD), Aug. 11, 1977, that describes the work of all four artists involved in the project. For related information see: Henry & Caroline Naylor's "Public Monuments & Sculpture of Baltimore: An Introduction to the Collections," 1987; and Leslie M. Freudenheim's "Baltimore's Public Art 1960-1980," 1980.
