With the addition of a new monumental stone and marble sculpture by Mexican artist Pedro Reyes, the River Walk Public Art Garden now has its anchor.as the signature public art project included in the 2017 municipal bond. After a deliberative selection and approval process, installation of the piece was completed in early March, adding an iconic artwork to the department’s growing collection of public art.
Rob and Lisa, a couple visiting from Washington state, stopped to check it out, drawn by the finely textured surface of the gray volcanic stone that makes up the seated female figure, who holds a relatively tiny, bright white marble star shape between her fingers. Lisa wondered if the figure was “looking at the stars,” or perhaps “looking at her dreams?” Rob said his first thought was that the piece represents “Aztec culture,” and was hoping an information plaque might bear him out.. Jules said the form of the sculpture reminded her of artwork by British modernist sculptor Henry Moore, or monumental figures by French sculptor Auguste Rodin.
