Overview

23’ tall 40’ long x 11’ wide on a 4’ tall concrete plinth. Made of 830 pieces of 1.5” square stainless steel tubing with welded end caps. Weight approximately 10,000 pounds. Artist Jeff Zischke contracted with Magnum Companies on this new signature sculpture for Westworld in North Scottsdale. Jeff designed the lighting layout and the programming which is set to change nightly.

Goals

Zischke stated in his proposal that “at the most fundamental level, my intention is to create a site-specific work that is unique, educational, and interactive – to create a catalyst for an experience that tells visitors that Scottsdale is a place on the move, with all the propulsion, the power of the large, elegant horse they are looking up at.”

Process

This is a true team effort, as every Magnum employee is contributing to the successful design, fabrication and installation of Jeff‘s artwork.
