Tom Friedman's "Looking Up" Sculpture

Looking Up, a 10-foot tall stainless steel sculpture by American artist Tom Friedman, depicts a quasi-human figure gazing up to the heavens. Created from the use of crushed aluminum foil pans through a process of molding and lost wax casting, the sculpture retains the imprint of the original materials. The magnificent 10-foot tall piece, full of awe and wonder, is a perfect example of Friedman’s interest in the supernatural and experiential.

The installation will be displayed at the entrance of the Channel Gardens located on 5th Avenue between 49th and 50th Streets.
