Arrival Plaza, general view from above, looking west; Martin Puryear's sculpture rises on six slender legs to a height of forty-five feet above the broad expanse of travertine pavement on the arrival plaza at the Getty Center. Stout strands of silver-patinated bronze bind the joints of the airy network of welded, sandblasted stainless steel tubes, two and three inches in diameter. That Profile was commissioned by the Getty. Source: The Getty [website]; http://www.getty.edu/ (accessed 7/10/2010)
