When justice and mercy prevail, children may safely play
Kirk Newman's sculpture in Bronson Park's reflecting pool, with the long title given above, was dedicated on July 4, 1976. I sang in a choir at that event. (That band shell's relatively new, but the location's where we were standing for the Bicentennial celebration.)
Newman's sprawling work of art is impossible to photograph as a whole, partly because it's spread out and partly because the potential backgrounds are very busy. This angle, with the added real-life children, catches most of Newman's children and shows the general shape of the piece. But you need to walk around the pool, looking at faces and poses, to fully appreciate Newman's accomplishment.
Besides the 366 Snaps photo, I published three more pix from this session on Flickr. Here, here, and here.
