A large, contemporary armillary sphere sculpture conceived by Square Peg Design and developed by David Harber, with graceful curves symbolizing the hull of a yacht heeling to the wind.
Chess-inspired giant cube sculpture, comprising 384 panels of interwoven copper and mirror-polished stainless steel.
The stainless steel sculpture is 18-feet tall and weighs 1,500 pounds. It was coined as the "jewel of the future arts plaza" at the Mayo Civic Center. The artist, Charles Huntington, noted that there is no specific theme to the sculpture except that he wanted something that would catch the eye of the viewer. He chose stainless steel as his material to reflect the sunlight and attract attention.
After a 4-year tour of duty in the US Navy from 1942 to 1946 and subsequent employment as an auto mechanic, Huntington attended the Minneapolis School of Art (now known as the Minnesota College of Art and Design) for 1 year (1959-1960). For the next 3 years, he was an assistant to Paul Granlund (1925-2003), another well-known Minnesota sculptor who was an artist-in-residence at Gustavus Adolphus College in St Peter, Minn.
