Nancy Metz White is a Wisconsin artist with large-scale outdoor public sculptures installed in two parks in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. White welds and sometimes brightly paints steel and forge flashings reclaimed from Milwaukee heavy industry. She describes herself as a practitioner of urban archeology. ==Sculptures== ''Tree of Life'', which is 2½ stories high, was erected in Mitchell Boulevard Park in 2002. ''Magic Grove'', a grouping of three tree forms, was installed in Enderis Playfield in 2006. Conceived as a community gathering place, ''Magic Grove'' includes benches designed by the artist and a commemorative brick walkway. In both ''Tree of Life'' and ''Magic Grove'', bird forms perch amid the tree branches, adding a fanciful touch. A smaller welded outdoor sculpture, ''Helping Hands'', whimsically constructed from hand die forms recycled from a glove factory, is on permanent display at the Mead Public Library in Sheboygan, Wisconsin.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.meadpl.org/about/art#outdoor )〕 In 2011, ''Fantasy Garden'', a grouping of five larger than life painted steel flowers also made from forge flashings, was installed on the plaza of the retirement community, Saint John’s On The Lake, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. White also made a series of sculptures out of galvanized and stainless steel furnace pipe and flexible air-conditioning ducting. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nancy Metz White」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
