Rosette Window, Guerrilla Installation by Sculpture Guild

I have been involved with the Sculpture Guild.  This year, the Guild was commissioned to make a Guerrilla Installation by Mid-America Fine Arts, a gallery in downtown Wichita.   The Guild came up with the idea of an installation inspired by the Rosette window of Notre Dame in Paris.  Although most of the work was done by very energetic and bold current students, I was able to help a little bit.  Here are some photos when we were 'fixing it a little' and re-installing it.  Well, it did not look like 'a little thing' at all to me.



Voila!  This is a photo from the parking lot.  The building is five stories high.  It's being blown by the wind!!

Sculpture Guild often makes this kind of colossal work as a group project.  They are an amazing group of creative and dedicated artists, and I am glad I am a small part of it.  The Rosette Guerrilla Installation was featured in The Wichita Eagle Newspaper today.  Go to: The Wichita Eagle
