"Businessman in Touch with Nature" - Ithaca, NY - Figurative Public Sculpture on Waymarking.com

(visit link)
"NYSEG purchased the piece in 2003 after it appeared in "Art in the Heart."
"I wanted to use the businessman as a sort of [an] every-man icon," said Rahn. "He's so busy being a businessman, he doesn't notice he's got wings.""

"Since June 2005, 32 artworks in the current "Art in the Heart of the City" public sculpture exhibit dotted the landscape of downtown Ithaca. The exhibit ended in December 2005 - though some artists chose to leave their sculptures in place - and will pick back up again this spring. The pieces, installed in various public indoor and outdoor locations, attract curious glances, elicit smiles or frowns and - organizers from the Ithaca Downtown Partnership (IDP) hope - enrich the urban landscape."
