Bronzeville to Harlem is a bronze and steel sculptural interpretation of the Harlem Renaissance period, which was a time of cultural reawakening which occurred all across the U.S. in the 1920's and 1930's. The piece consists of 300 small bronze figures and automobiles in an 80-foot neighborhood of approximately 30 buildings. The piece is made of painted steel and cast bronze and is continuously evolving with new ideas in the way of images, kinetics, sound and lighting. Through this sculpture, I am expressing my long-felt admiration for the cultural contributions of the creative people of those times. |
