[WATCH] Remembering Joy Brown's Massive 3,000 Pound Sculptures on Broadway

Were they giants? Behemoths from another age? No.

From May 2017 through yesterday, February 22nd, 2018, a massive sculpture exhibition of 9 bronze works from artist Joy Brown had been on display on the Broadway Malls of the Upper West Side up to Washington Heights.

These huge sculptures have been a delight to see during the last three seasons. To call them gigantic is an understatement, but that belies the warmth and tenderness found in them. To see them calmly lording over unruly Broadway pedestrian and automobile traffic, always brought a smile.

Evan Fairbanks took his camera to artfully document them, intrepidly, in rain, snow and occasional sunshine.

This exhibition was organized with the cooperation of the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation and the Morrison Gallery of Kent, CT in conjunction with the Broadway Mall Association.
