When walking passed the Abby, in the direction of the CRC, it is hard not to notice the chaotically organized brass sculpture gracing the lawn. The Homage to Piranesi was the work of American sculptor and painter, Herbert Ferber (1906-1991). This former Columbia University dental student turned artist is known for his hollow metallic renderings depicting forces in conflict. Herber has been featured in a number of prominent museums, including the Whitney Museum of American Art (NYC), the Cantor Art Center (Paolo Alto), and the Dallas Museum of Art (Texas). Representing Herbert’s caged works, the copper and brass Homage to Piranesi is on extended loan from the MoMA.
