Description

Black and white photograph of a textured, wall-mounted sculptural artwork resembling an island landscape with mountains and forests, ca. 1975. The large sculptural relief is installed on the exterior of a siding-clad building. The artwork depicts a mountainous landscape with jagged peaks and a forested area in the foreground, executed with heavy textures and three-dimensional effects that cast shadows on the surface. The sculpture is framed and mounted flush to the wall, with part of a window visible on the right side. Testa's Restaurant, Main Street, Bar Harbor, Maine. 1994. Jill Linzee, photograph. (See p16247-p16251.) (See NA4800.)

Save Outdoor Sculpture! (SOS!) (1990-1995) was a nationwide survey that ran from 1990-1995 documenting America’s outdoor sculpture. Established in 1990, SOS! helped educate local communities about America’s endangered sculptural heritage. The Maine Arts Commission was one of 106 organizations to participate in this survey.
