Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Mary Lucking and Pete Goldlust are longtime Phoenix artists behind a few of the coolest public art projects in town (see: Lucking's permanent installation at the Arizona Science Center and Goldlust's temporary project in conjunction with IN FLUX).
"Climbing up the bell tower wall will be a squishy, ropey trunk of twined jean legs opening into spreading tree limbs that weave their way into the rafters overhead," the artists write. "Fleshy soft-sculpture leaves, fruit, and brilliantly colored birds formed from repurposed fabrics hang from the branches. The huge soft sculpture tree will seek to overtake the tower with its lushness."
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
