CONCRETE, STEEL, AND ART GLASS

LINCOLN PARK, CHICAGO, IL

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH CW KNEELAND GLASS, CHICAGO METAL ROLLED PRODUCTS, AND MJ ERECTORS

Susan Giles’ sculpture represents Amy Krouse Rosenthal’s signature symbol in the spirit of one of her projects, The Beckoning of Lovely. The 12 ft yellow umbrella contains the word “more” which represents Rosenthal’s spirit for life, always wanting so much from and giving to her community. The glass is hand painted and includes images of yellow flowers photographed from the actual blossoms found in the Lincoln Park gardens that now house the artwork.
