Public Art in Modesto

Art Title and Artist Location Notes
Forma X II, 1969
Arnaldo Pomodoro

1700 Standiford

Pomodoro’s sculptures are in plazas, gardens, and museums in many cities including Roma, Paris, San Francisco, and Dublin. This one was previously in Milano, Berkeley, and New York. “Today I think of my sculptures as crystals, or nuclei, or as eyes, or signal fires; and I see them as relating to borders and voyages, to the worlds of complexity and imagination.” Arnaldo Pomodoro, 2008
