'Molecule' by Mark di Suvero and the Guthrie Theater -- Gold Medal Park Minneapolis (MN) September 2015

In the left foreground is the scupture 'Molecule' by Mark di Suvero.

 

Per the Walker Art Center website:

 

"The monumental scale and sweeping gestures of this red-painted sculpture are characteristic of the enormous outdoor structures Mark di Suvero has been making since the 1970s, using cranes to manipulate the massive industrial materials with which he works.

 

In the right background is the Guthrie Theater.

 

Per Wikipedia:

 

"Founded in 1963, the Guthrie is a center for theater performance, production, education, and professional training in Minneapolis (MN).

 

It is the result of the desire of Sir Tyrone Guthrie, Oliver Rea, and Peter Zeisler to create a resident acting company that would produce and perform the classics in an atmosphere removed from the commercial pressures of Broadway.

 

The Guthrie Theater has performed in two main-stage facilities. The first building was designed by Ralph Rapson, included a 1,441-seat thrust stage designed by Tanya Moiseiwitsch, and was operated from 1963–2006.

 

After closing its 2005–2006 season, the Theater moved to its current facility designed by Jean Nouvel.
