Two Rivers

“Two Rivers” by Greg Wyatt, 2009
Museo dell'Opera del Duomo
Pisa, December 2014

“Wyatt’s statue -- an 18-foot tall flowing, crusty bronze behemoth designed to represent the cultural bond between the people who live along the Arno and Hudson Rivers -- was mostly underwritten by a $350,000 grant from the city of Florence. The project took two years and, says exhibition curator Michelangiolo Bastiani, more than 50 official permissions and hours of arguments to complete.” (Michelangelo’s Florence Is Abuzz Over 11-Ton American Statue, Bloomberg)
