Swimmer
Just outside the Phoenix Art Museum is this giant sculpture of a swimmer floating through and underwater obstacle. I'm afraid I don't know the artist's name but, I have always admired this sculpture from a distance.

Ha! I like it... I thought it was Superman first. A really nice sculpture.
Most unusual. I'd like to see more of this sculptor's work.
Unusual.
I like it too.
I like it also, it looks to be good sized.
Sharon, I meant to say, the Hyatt was in my photo yesterday, the building with the circling restaurant on top. You have been everywhere...
Very interesting. He really looks swimming in the air.
I dont really associate swimming with your area. Maybe the artisit longs for more water.
I really like it too Sharon, it's such a clever idea.
Is the swimmer turning to swim through the obstacle? There's something about the perspective that seems weird...like where the legs are. :)
Very clever work, it's so well done. Fantastic!
Such a strong piece! Nice one.
I like it too... some public art leaves me scratching my head, but I get this and I like the strength it portrays...
I'v always loved that sculpture.
There is a feeling of strength here.
That is a very interesting looking sculpture for sure. Nice perspective Sharon!
Minimalist but effective!
