The Whaling Wall by Knox Martin
The Whaling Wall by Knox Martin
The Whaling Wall is a public mural by Knox Martin.
This Artwork depicts man’s killing of the whales. It is a metaphor for peace and a call for humanity.
The Whaling Wall will be premiered as a public mural at 334 Grand Street, New York, NY; corner of Grand and Ludlow Streets facing west; scheduled to be completed Spring 2013.
The realization of Knox Martin's 7th NYC public artwork is made possible by the commitment of the following: Artist Knox Martin has envisioned and will donate his painting to the public to raise awareness; Mr & Mrs. Kevin Downey have donated their building’s exterior wall; Golden Artist Colors, Inc. will provide custom paint; Woodward Gallery has coordinated and will curate the project.
It is the Artist Knox Martin’s intention to provide his mural at other specifically selected sites throughout the world to raise international attention to the plight of the whales.
The Whaling Wall requires financial assistance. Funds are needed for the installation: the rigger, workmen, equipment and insurance. We are asking you to participate with us in this project.
Your generous support will save the whales!
