All Aflutter

Ivinson Memorial Hospital lobby
March 2019
I found another delightful bronze sculpture of two children (earlier one can be seen here), and even though I haven't found any information about the artist, I would bet the two sculptures were created by the same person. 


I wish it was possible to see all sides of the piece but one side faces the staircase and a stone "garden"


It's impossible not to smile when you see the delight the children show as they interact with the pigeons. 


The three boxes for the sculpture's base indicate these are homing pigeons.

Update: thanks to Paula the Quilter for identifying the artist and the name of this sculpture.

George Lundeen created this sculpture, named, "New Friends"

  6. That piece is called "New Friends". The sculptor is George Lundeen (I work for him). The other sculpture that features pigeons is called "Old Friends" and is of the birds and an old man.
