MGE Fabricates Four Monumental Sculptures for Artist Albert Paley
When you’re a metal fabrication shop that advertises custom work, you can expect nearly any kind of request. Brackets, conveyors, cyclones, cutting tables, you name it. But this spring and summer Maple Grove Enterprises faces our largest and most exciting metal fabrication job to date: four monumental sculptures by renowned artist Albert Paley.
These abstract metal sculptures will grace the four corners of the 24th Street Bridge in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Nearly $9 million dollars has been spent by the Iowa West Foundation to establish Council Bluffs as a major public arts center. Albert Paley is one of the many world-class artists commissioned for this major project.
Maple Grove Enterprises already has a track record with the artist. Over the years, we have sandblasted and coated a number of his pieces. Then last year, he selected us to fabricate and install his 64-foot sculpture for the Clay Center in West Virginia. Our crew's can-do attitude and attention to detail so impressed the artist that Paley hired us again this year for the Council Bluffs job.
The sculptures, consisting mainly of corten and stainless steel, are first fabricated and then erected at our Arcade shop. After each sculpture is completed, it is disassembled to make room for the next one. Ultimately, all of the sculptures will be shipped to Council Bluffs in August to be erected once again by the Maple Grove Enterprises crew.
