SYMBOLIC METAL SCULPTURE ADDED AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE GARDENS
Joe B. Parks Riverwalk Public Gardens的点评
点评:The Central Avenue entrance to the Joe B. Parks Riverwalk Public Gardens recently had a metal sculpture installed.
The artist was Markus Weinfurter of Durham, NH.
The sculpture named “Reaching Across” was designed to represent nature with a vine-like base and white flowers across the top of the arch, mankind, and technology with mechanical parts for manufacturing that represent Dover’s industrial past.
How all the recycled metal parts were assembled into the sculpture is remarkable.
Many civic and private organizations as well as businesses were involved in making this project happen. Even welding students from Dover High School's Career Technical Center were involved.
The project took over a year to complete.
I think it’s great to have some public art in the downtown area. I’d like to see more.
For just the time and effort that went into producing this large artwork, I rate this addition to the public gardens at 4.50 and highly recommend a visit during which I suggest visitors closely examine the details of its numerous parts.
For quite awhile, I had been very far behind in submitting my reviews due to a long loss of my ability to post photos with my reviews and some health issues, but I’m catching up and closing in on getting current.

艺术家是来自新罕布什尔州达勒姆的马库斯·温福特。
这座名为“Reaching Across”(延伸)的雕塑旨在展现自然,其基座呈藤蔓状,拱门顶部点缀着白色的花朵,象征着自然、人类和科技,雕塑中机械零件的制造工艺代表着多佛的工业历史。
所有回收的金属零件是如何组装成雕塑的,令人叹为观止。
许多民间和私人组织以及企业都参与了这个项目,甚至连多佛高中职业技术中心的焊接专业学生也参与其中。
这个项目耗时一年多才完成。
我认为在市中心拥有一些公共艺术作品非常棒。我希望看到更多这样的作品。
就创作这件大型艺术品所花费的时间和精力而言,我给这座公共花园的新增作品打4.5分,强烈推荐参观,建议游客仔细观察其各个部件的细节。
