And The Winner Is...

SDP  12-7-11
The City of Sarasota is now the proud owner of this sculpture, known as 'Fractured Migration'. It was created by local artist Dennis Kowal and was one of 12 sculptures in a popular public art campaign. The intent was to display the pieces for one year and then purchase one for the city's permanent public art collection --  and this piece was selected as the winner. It's particularly popular at night when it resembles an ice sculpture. (Click here to see 'Fractured Migration' in the daytime during the kick-off event.)  It will remain right where it is....in Selby Five Points Park (where all the cool colorful lights are).

Thank goodness it isn't ice!

Looks like a worthy winner. I like it in day and night.

I agree, ice it is!

I like the form. Is this a polished metal? Has the artist explained it, or it it up to us to figure out why it is "Fractured Migration"?
