Iceberg sculpture planned for Miami River by Wright State artist
Wright State University assistant professor Robert Sibbison obtains preliminary approval from the Miami Valley Conservancy District to build a 55 by 25 by 15 foot iceberg sculpture in the Miami River between I 75 and the Monument Avenue Bridges. The work will be built at Wright State, moved to the site, anchored on an I beam grid, and reassembled with crane and divers during the Ohio Invitational Art Show at the Dayton Art Institute running Feb 17 to March 17. Funding includes a $400 grant from WSU and private support. Sibbison will contribute personal funds. The piece aims to evoke Ohio’s Glacier Age and will shift shapes with viewing angle.
