New Statue 'Floating Citadel' Unveiled at Huntington Place
8/23/2022
Huntington Pace has installed and unveiled a stunning new, public art outdoor sculpture Floating Citadel, by internationally-acclaimed artist Scott Hocking, in the main circle drive of the convention center. The sculpture rests in the center of an architectural focal point for the venue, the middle of a circular drive in front of the outdoor riverfront terrace Huntington Place Square, and under the 4,000 square-foot marquee digital sign that illuminates downtown Detroit. It can be seen through floor to ceiling windows in the venue’s main public food court. ![]() “Huntington Place offers visitors a freely accessible art collection featuring local artists from all mediums: painting, glass, frescos, murals, and a variety of sculptural forms,” said Karen Totaro, general manager of Huntington Place/ASM Global. “It reveals the area’s unique culture and gives historical meaning to Detroit.” At the unveiling, the sculpture was dedicated to Larry Alexander, the first chairman of board that oversees the venue for the state of Michigan, the Detroit Regional Convention Facility Authority (DRCFA). His chairmanship lasted from 2009-2021. The sculpture was dedicated to Alexander to honor his leadership during the $279 million renovation that was completed in 2015 which brought business and jobs back to center. Before retiring in 2021, Alexander was also president & CEO of the Detroit Metro Convention & Visitors Bureau for 25 years. Learn more here. Contact: questions@exhibitormagazine.com |
