The Pulitzer Arts Foundation is small enough that an exhibition is often about the work of a single artist. The current show is devoted to Terry Adkins, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_Adkins. His oeuvre and resume are spectacular. I wondered why I'd never heard of him. Perhaps for racial reasons, but he certainly made an impact on the art world.
This work is called Last Trumpet. Adkins used sousaphone and trombone bells attached to tubes of cast brass. You can actually play them.
They look huge.
