14 New Horizon Sharing Art Without Boundaries By Angela Romeo photos by Steve Tanguy I am a supporter of art in public places. Even when the prevailing winds were not favorable, art in public places is my passion. On Wednesday, <strong>October</strong> 22, <strong>2014</strong>, a significant piece of art was airlifted into a very public place. “New Horizon” is the work of internationally known abstract sculptor Bruce Beasley. The sculpture is a 3700-pound granite carved bench. Local resident Bradford W. Bates, with one small stipulation, gifted the piece to the Palm Springs Art Museum. “I wanted to contribute something to, not just the Palm Springs Art Museum, but to Palm Springs. I wanted a piece that embodies the love, openness and creativity that is truly the heart of Palm Springs. This unique sculpture embodies those ideals. Equally important, I wanted this gift to be for all – my dream was to place this work at the top of the tram. The tram is an iconic landmark and is frequented by residents and visitors. To me, this is the home for ‘New Horizon,’” stated Mr. Bates. Getting the sculpture from the PS Art Museum to its permanent home at the tram was no small feat. “We often say in the gallery, that moving art is like herding cats, not as simple as one thinks,” joked Alec Longmuir, Art Director at Melissa Morgan Fine Art Gallery. “Bringing Bradford and Bruce together was synergistic. The work immediately spoke to Bradford. Patron and Artist have the same mind when the permanent home for the piece was discussed. The significance of the gift and its location spoke to Mr. Beasley. It is a fitting to tribute to his artistic legacy as well as that of Palm Springs.” To relocate the granite abstract bench Swanson Aviation Group, based in Glendale Oregon, was contracted. Pilot Adam Tate, who has over 10 years of experience, was brought in to fly the piece to its new home. “The total flight time, from lift off to placement of the sculpture, will be about ten minutes,” said Tate.” It was essential to choose the correct time of day for the flight. This had to be done early in the day, when the temperatures are cooler and when the winds are slight. Wind is always a consideration.” “This is the first time Swanson has moved art work. The Kaman K-MAX helicopter with intermeshing rotors built in 2003 and one of only 38 such helicopters in the world, was selected. It can move loads up to 6,000 pounds,” said Jim Allen of Swanson Aviation. “We did not need to file a flight plan but this move did require many hours of preplanning.” “New Horizon “now sits at an elevation of 8500 feet. The inscription reads, “Palm Springs: A place to freely live, design, and love. A place where we can be who we thought we could never be. A healing and holy place for the entire world to see.” Angela Romeo is the producer /host of COLLIDING WORLDS TV and COLLIDING WORLDS RADIO.
