Outdoor Sculpture -- Oklahoma -- Oklahoma City

Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce, Communications, 123 Park Avenue, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Commissioned by the Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce for their new building. The design was inspired by the title of the musical "Oklahoma!" which ends with an exclamation point. "The Point," as the sculpture is locally known, is also intended to convey the vibrancy of Oklahoma City. It is illuminated by footlights on each side. The design also appears in the Chamber's newsletter banner. IAS files include a statement and a drawing from the architects.
