The Story of Two Open Rectangles Horizontal
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The man behind this sculpture was the influential kinetic sculptor George Rickey. Although he was born in Indiana, he grew up in Scotland outside of Glasgow. He would study drawing and painting in Paris with noted artists like Fernand Léger, André Lhote and Amédée Ozenfant.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The steel rectangles on top of the sculpture imitate the square aluminum beams in the large windowpanes in the front of the Meadows School of the Arts.
Like the swaying of the branches and rustling of the leaves of the trees in the wind, the sculpture’s two horizontal rectangles rise and fall in spectacular arcs.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The slightest breeze can brush the steel rectangles into gentle movement. Conversely, the solid structure of the sculpture can withstand the strongest gusts of wind.
Light changes the sculpture as well. Early in the morning with the sunrise, the sculpture appears clear with heavy rays of the Texas sun showcasing the work to the rest of the campus. By sunset, the path of the sun has moved behind the Meadows School of the Arts.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Commissioned by AT&T Inc. in 1983, the sculpture is an excellent representation of Rickey’s work in the last decades of the 20th Century.

The Story of The “EYE”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The piece is called simply Eye, and was created by artist Tony Tasset in 2007 as part of a temporary display in Chicago. It stands 30 feet tall, and is modeled after Tasset’s own. Made of fiberglass, it was fabricated by a company best known for creating giant, kitschy roadside attractions. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The big eyeball spent a few years in storage, made a brief appearance in St. Louis, and was finally brought to Texas in 2013. It was purchased by the hotel as part of their expansive art collection, and to anchor their downtown location and its sculpture garden. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Tasset denies any deep symbolism behind the work, stating in an interview with the website Co.Design that he “just wanted to make something awesome.” As startled passersby generally agree, he succeeded.
