Public Art. An abstract sculpture of painted concrete and wood, on the lawn of The Evanston Art Center, "NOT HERE, THERE!" 2014, by Robert Fields.
NOT HERE... THERE!
Paint on wood & concrete
90" x 114" x 24" high
2014

Based upon an invite by the Evanston Art Center to create a work that responded to the history of the lighthouse monument adjacent to their property. The light's purpose was as a navigational aid: to mark the distance (10 miles) from there (HERE) to the mouth of the Chicago River (THERE). The forms & material refer to the flow & drift of the water, weather, shoreline, and the spirit of commerce to harness and overcome all. Installed on their front lawn from May to May, 2014 -15.
