Located near the Polar Bear Plunge exhibit at the San Diego Zoo, this sculpture depicts two chrome? polar bears. The smaller bear looks straight ahead while the second and larger bear arches its neck- apparently on the lookout.
The small (and cracked) plaque at the work reads:
"THIS SCULPTURE WAS GIVEN
IN LOVING MEMORY OF
IONE FAITH HARTER
BY HER HUSBAND PAUL
DR. BURT BRENT, SCULPTOR"
