Musical Bench 2003, Artist: David Govedare, From Steam Plant Square donated salvage material, Lincoln Street At Sprague Avenue
|
|
A plaque embedded in the sidewalk read:
|
|
The bench stood on the sidewalk alongside a brick wall, near the corner of First Avenue At Sprague Avenue, in Spokane, Washington.
|
|
Strips of metal were welded to the back of the bench in an arrangement that resembled musical notes.
|
|
An abstracted mouth played a harmonica next to a saxophone.
|
|
The harmonica was bronze, as were the lips and teeth. The bottom lip was welded to the seat bottom.
|
|
A set of snare drums with two drumsticks divided one side of the bench from the other side. Thus preventing anyone from lying down or sleeping on the bench.
|
|
The other end of the bench was decorated with metal cutouts of a trombone and a trumpet.
|
|
Another mouth, a the other end of the bench, sang as indicated by a swirl of metal.
