Unveiling of Hetherington Sculpture at Bihl Haus, May 2

Thanks to the generosity of Anthony C and Melissa Pearson, Bihl Haus Arts has received a large sculpture, "Highway" by James Hetherington.

The unveiling celebration, Saturday May 2 from 2 to 4 PM will include a talk by Mr. Hetherington as well as barbeque, beer and cake.

"Highway" is made from recycled rebar, concrete plate steel and remnants from road repairs. James uses these baled forms to celebrate blue-collar workers who construct the highways and buildings that make up our American landscape.

The sculpture will be visible from Fredricksburg Road and accessible from both on and off the Primrose property.

An exhibition of Mr. Hetherington's work continues at Bihl Haus until May 16, 2009.
