Monument For East Vancouver by Ken Lum

20 metres high (55')

steel, concrete, plastic, aluminum

 

For anyone who grew up or lived in East Vancouver for any length of time, this is a familiar insignia. It has been tattoooed, scrawled/painted on various surfaces, seen on T-shirts and skateboards... and is now a sign on the top of the hill on East 6th Avenue and Clark Drive. This is a permanent structure created by Vancouver artist Ken Lum. His other most notable work are the boats on the roof (Four Boats Stranded) of the Vancouver Art Gallery.
