Public Art on the Portland Mall

The renovated transit mall downtown includes lots of sculpture, some new, some that was there before the renovation. I've been taking photos of some of it, as I come upon it while walking either on SW 5th or SW 6th Avenues.

This is part of the original collection. I took the photo on June 22, 2009, thus the bright sunshine and the green leaves on the trees.

I don't know if I'm too crazy about this one. You have much better public art in your city, but hey, we all don't like the same things now do we?

I like the shape, but I like the vibrant colors even more!
