SUMMARY:
The City of Pensacola received a funding donation from Ms. Anna Holliday Benson to be used toward the beautification of Bartram Park and Admiral Mason Park. Funds are to be used for new art additions called “Overture” by Jeremy Guy and “Chute des Cubes” by Marc Plamondon. Overture represents a musical composition, usually the orchestral introduction to a musical. Chute des Cubes has three impossibly balanced white cubes which form one monolithic outdoor structure and at night the sides of the cubes appear as free-floating diamonds. Once the sculptures are installed, they will become the property of the City of Pensacola. Prior to any future movement of the sculptures, a notice must be provided to Ms. Benson.
Ms. Benson’s donation will cover the cost of the art and shipping and the City will cover the cost of installation.
