Silhouettes

This group of figures cut from metal stands on the north facade of the New York State Legislative Office Building just across State Street from the West Capitol Park.

I used to dislike this sculpture, but it's grown on me in recent years. And I like the 70s look of these silvery shadow people by artist Larry Kagan.

  1. I took a picture of this back in the 70s when I worked at the Plaza and it was new. I love it. Thanks for the memory!

  2. I like it, up to the matching monochromatic color with the building.

  3. I like this too, although to my eye the figures almost look like settlers from the 1800's.
