Students’ sculpture joins the landscape

A new sculpture has joined the University’s renowned collection of outdoor works of art. The sculpture, which consists of three 7-foot concrete columns and two blue rubber forms, was designed by the Lewis Center’s “Advanced Sculpture” class taught by artist Martha Friedman. The class attracted ­undergraduates and graduate students in architecture who designed the sculpture and oversaw its installation between the Friend Center and Mudd Library, where it will be on display through October. The class had a harder time agreeing on the sculpture’s name than its design; the result was a “combined title” 87 words long:
