The first off-site installation for Sculpture: A Wyoming Invitational was created by Denver sculptor Charles Parson for a site on Prexy's Pasture. Molto Allargando is a 65-ft steel and glass work that references the horizon line so prominent in the American West. The artist, Art Museum personnel and interns, and UW Physical Plant staff undertook the project of off-loading and place sections of the sculpture on the prepared site. Installation, including berming and sod work, was completed in two days.
