Mark di Suvero 'Huru' sculpture Information board standing green grass, Crissy Field, San Francisco, California, USA

---

In May 2013, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA), in partnership with the National Park Service and Golden Gate National Park Conservancy, decided to display eight of Mark di Suvero's large metal sculptures at Crissy Field. The display was to run until May 2014. Each sculpture is some 15 m (50 ft) high and 12 m (40 ft) wide. This information board is entitled 'Huru 1984-85'. It reads: 'Standing fifty-five feet high, this sculpture is the tallest in the exhibition. The work rises from a sturdy tripod base to support a six-ton top section that spins and sways in the wind, its upper beams extending like arms outstretched in greeting. This exuberant gesture, which echoes the expressive possibility suggested in much of di Suvero's art, is here reinforced by the work's title: ''Huru" is an Australian aboriginal word that means both "hello" and "goodbye".'
