1985

Painted aluminum / 39' x 24' x 22' / 9 tons

Location: 8750-8770 W. Bryn Mawr Ave., Chicago

Commissioned by Chicago's Miglin-Beitler Developments. It was a private commission, and the sculpture is located on private property. 

The same developers had earlier commissioned Louise Nevelson's "Dawn Shadows" at the Madison Plaza I.  Later the development firm Metropolitan Structures commissioned Jerry Peart for Splash (1987) at the Illinois Center complex. The sculpture Splash is now relocated at the Trickster Gallery in Schaumburg.
