Play is an abstract sculpture by Lars Jonker.[1] It is located in Hendricks Park, in the historic Bates-Hendricks neighborhood, south of downtown Indianapolis, Indiana.
Description
The painted-metal sculpture consists of two large, curvilinear forms facing each other.[2] One curved form has a yellow ball and the other has a purple ball attached near their pointed extremities. A blue ball rests between the two curves on a metal platform that encompasses both arcs.
Information
Lars Jonker, a local artist at the nearby Wheeler Arts Community, created Play for Hendricks Park, as part of the park's ongoing development.[3]
An alternate name for this artwork is Catch; there is still some debate as to its rightful name.[4]
Location history
The sculpture was installed in Hendricks Park, a collaborative project between the Bates-Hendricks Neighborhood Association, Keep Indianapolis Beautiful, Baker & Daniels, Eli Lilly and Company, and Southeast Neighborhood Development that began in 2000 and was completed in 2002.[3] Despite occasional vandalism and some restoration, the sculpture remains in the park, on Madison Avenue, just south of downtown Indianapolis.[2] This small park in the Bates-Hendricks neighborhood is operated by Indy Parks and owned by the City of Indianapolis.[3][5]
