A Walk Along Washington Avenue: 2

Walk Along Washington 6

This 20 foot / 6 meter stainless steel sculpture has been at the corner of 8th and Washington since 1976. Its title is Synergism. Quite a few years ago I represented one of the two co-designers. Before I knew this was his work he simply told me that he was a sculptor. I asked him what kind. "A great one!" he immediately shot back. You can form your own opinion. He's got several pieces around town.

    Abstract art is for the birds. Synergism; is he pro or con?

    I guess it's necessary to be confident if you're going to put your work out there, was interesting to see his other pieces Bob.

    This is amazing! And I love it in b&w. Great shots!

    Regarding the Guernsey cows, I guess not, but the thing is I have no information about the piece I posted yesterday. It might be written somewhere at the station but I was in a hurry and had no time to look for it.
