A Spire for Mansfield, also shortened to 'A-Spire' 〔(Wolfgang Buttress - Works ) Archived from the original on 21 May 2009 via Wayback Machine. Retrieved 7 February 2014.〕 is a 13 metre (42.7 foot) sculpture, which lies within the centre of Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, England. It was officially endorsed by the former local mayor Tony Egginton and Mansfield District Council.〔(Wolfgang Buttress - A Spire ) (work information). Accessed 25 June 2010.〕 The sculpture was installed in late 2007, as the third piece of artwork for public art in Mansfield〔(Helen Lambourne, 9 August 2007 ), The Chad.〕 and appears as a large metallic feather. The sculpture was created by two artists; Wolfgang Buttress and Heron, and was intended to mark the legacy of local coal mining, the canaries once taken underground, Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire, and Mansfield's engineering traditions. 〔(Wolfgang Buttress, 2007, A Spire - Concept ). Accessed 25 June 2010.〕 The tines of the feather were cut by laser from 3mm stainless steel and were meant to "capture the breeze" and allow the sculpture to gently sway, portraying the branches of a tree. The highly polished stainless steel aimed to reflect the light and act as "a counterpart to the surrounding trees".〔(Wolfgang Buttress, 2007, A Spire, Detail ) Accessed 25 June 2010.〕 ==See also==
