Calgarians welcomed a new piece of public sculpture downtown during the summer of 2002. John McEwen's “Weaving Fence and Horn” sits on the corner of 1 Street and 4 Avenue SW in front of the TransCanada Tower. Installed in June, the sculpture consists of two components— a metal ram's horn and a fence. According to the artist, the weaving refers to the undulation of fences as they snake across the rolling prairies and to the weaving of dialogue between fence and horn. The sculpture will also function as a windbreak, reducing the blustery nature of one of downtown Calgary's windiest street corner
