We recently installed my new sculpture Rocket Science #2 (Lunar Lander) at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum in Ridgefield, Connecticut in preparation for my show, Seeing Around, June 13, 2009 to January 17, 2010. The piece is in the style of Home-Brew High Industrial Fruitcake. It is 70 feet or 21 meters long, and 35 feet or 11 meters high. The installation was carried out by my staff and by United Concrete (Yalesville, CT), who also constructed the piece.
