Martin Luther King. Jr

When I was going to the library for the archive project when I came across this sculpture. I thought it was a really unique sculpture since I never saw anything like it. I was wondering why it was in front of the a high school. It turns out that it’s a memorial sculpture made by William Tarr made by a self-weathering steel. This same steel, which is called the Mayari R. was used for the walls of the schools buildings. When I found this out, I thought that it was really cool. The connection between the sculpture and the school was so amazing! I thought it was a great idea! I mean, who thinks like that? Relating the sculpture to the school. I thought it was terrific.

Have you guys found a sculpture with this kind of connection to its school?
