''Float'' is a public artwork by American artist Peter Flanary〔http://peterflanary.com/Welcome.html〕 located on the campus of the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee in front of Sandburg Hall,〔http://www4.uwm.edu〕 which is in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. ==Description==
The sculpture is nestled into a deep ravine and takes advantage of the lay of the land. Flanary has said that before creating any sculpture, "I go to the desired location where the sculpture will be built and just sketch." (Phone interview with Peter Flanary December 4 2pm). "Float" plays with the weight of materials and combines a bronze structure of a canoe with the heavy granite stone. The piece is approximately 15 feet high and barely rises to the level of the sidewalk leading to Sandburg Hall.〔http://www.merchantcircle.com/business/Peter.Flanary.Studio.608-987-460〕 ''Float'' was purchased with $25,000 that was set aside for artwork during the building of Sandburg Hall. The artist originally meant for the piece to feature a cart with an anvil on top and a star reigning over. Sandburg Hall's architect thought that this design demonstrated a communist ideal and forced Flanary to come up with something else. ''Float'' is currently property of the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee and all applicable students.
