Have you ever noticed the big wooden sculpture across the street from the Walnut Creek BART back parking lot? It’s right between the big office buildings that engulf Caffe California. Funny enough, it’s just down the block from our Better Homes and Gardens offices!
I’ve walked past this a few times and never gave it a second glance, but I actually noticed it recently and I love the composition of the structure. It kind of looks like a bunch of different parts of a piano was disassembled and dropped in a heap on the concrete.
Make sure to take a look next time you’re on your way to or from BART. It’s pretty cool!
This sculpture is painted aluminum. A few years ago, it was painted a steel grey. It’s a deconstructed letter G, from the alphabet.
Fletcher Benton. Folded Square G, 1984. Painted aluminum plate. 2 Walnut Creek Center. 200 Pringle Av.
Thank you for sharing the additional information, it always makes the art more interesting.
