Sculpture for wall; midcentury bead wire tire structure, pair; like an eel trap
About the Item
Sculpture for the wall of tire-shaped, bead wire, circa 1960s. Sold as a pair. Actually used at one time in tire manufacturing. An industrial component, these tire bead wires compose a willowy, ethereal sculpture, its litheness resonating in the shadows of circles thrown on the wall. Might also be strung with lighting to enhance the effect.
In design for an interior, this wall sculpture acts as a light, airy counterweight to heavier furnishings beneath. A rare industrial find.

- Clock Frame from Original Penn Station Train Waiting Room, 6-ft diameter, c 1910By Stanford WhiteLocated in Madison, WIClock frame from the original Penn Train Station Waiting Room in New York City, circa 1910. The Penn Station Clock, with its significant 6-foot diameter, was suspended above the frenzied crowds in the waiting room. And became a popular rendezvous location through the years for millions of travelers, warriors, lovers and friends. A movie "The Clock" (1945) showcased these rendezvous and the dramas that ensued. Penn Station, the building that housed the clock, is considered a magnum opus of the 20th century. A magnificent example of the Beaux-Art style. Its demolition to the ground beginning in 1963 created an uproar of anger and disbelief, sending shockwaves through the city and the world. "When the Old Penn Station Was Demolished, New York Lost Its Faith."--The New York Times declared. And lost most of the precious artifacts from the building, trucked to landfills or taken home by those working the site. The Penn Station clock disappeared. Until now. The Penn Station clock frame, forged in iron, its roman numerals hammered out on an anvil, represents an American icon of illustrious provenance and backstory. In famous photos of the old Waiting Room, the clock stands out as a beacon suspended beneath the vaulting, 138-foot high ceiling. More than a 100 years old, 60 of those in obscurity, this is one of a few prominent architectural elements to have survived the demolition of the monumental Pennsylvania Station...Category
