A Neo Classic Addition To The Public Art Scene In Beaverton: Due Vecchi Pattini

What you are seeing here today is what appears to be the newest installment of public art in the Beaverton area. This particular piece caught my eye this morning and for the moment it can be viewed in person behind the old Ross building at the Cedar Hills Mall. The title of this piece is "Due Vecchi Pattini" which means, two old shoes and is very similar to the works of the contemporary Italian artists Marcello Guasti and Paolo Chellini.

Again, it is refreshing to see that the City of Beaverton is taking such great strides towards making our community a regional center of culture. At this pace it is simply a matter of time before Beaverton replaces Portland as the area's premier location for fine art.

I will continue to do my part, which is to locate and document new pieces of public art as they appear and then report back to you, my loyal minions. So please stay tuned for further updates and images of public art in the Beaverton area. And to my faithful in Portland, fear not. You will still be represented in my other in depth series which was mentioned here---> Parking Structures of the Portland Metro Area


And remember to support the arts and more specifically the artists themselves.
