FLIGHT - 1969
“Hung high above the Huntington Park Library’s main stairway, Flight is a curved, asymmetrical shape, which resembles various flying figures depending on which angle it is viewed. Reminiscent of a bird or a bat with its wings outstretched, it is made of aluminum and suspended by three center cables.” [1]
