Soft Inverted Q-Black, Proof VI

More Information

This piece, a study for the museum's six-foot tall sculpture, is cast from Hytrel, a manmade rubber used to make hoses, gaskets, and a range of other industrial products. The outdoor sculpture was to have been constructed from Hytrel as well in homage to Akron’s role as a rubber producer. When the sculpture’s large size made that impossible, however, it was cast from concrete instead and coated with a polyurethane surface.
