Landowner, Helen Langen,
of Malvern Hills, Hororata and New Jersey Artist
Judith Wray, celebrate the installation of the Ball Pipe, the first of
many
outdoor sculptures to be exhibited on the beautiful foothills landscape.
The Ball Pipe was created by teens from both East Brunswick and Citizen
School, New Brunswick, New Jersey.
A 1985 model Mercedes
Benz was sold to cover costs of shipping the nine ft. PVC pipe
sculpture to Christchuch, NZ. The pipe is only one from many....a merger
of ideas between Henry Sunderland's "The Great Pipe Dream" and Judith
Wray's "Pipe Dreams", in NJ.
Visual Arts League, (VAL) is a non-profit, charitable arts organization
which along with the regular things that arts groups do also creates a
sort of art adventure. Ideas hatched together which take off in a
myriad of ways for the sheer flight of it!
More to come! Just got
home Saturday night..a pilgrimage to Helen's place in NZ to witness the
pipe solidly in place atop a rounded mountain overlooking ranges of
mountains and valleys.
