"Totem," 1962
© Norman Warsinske

Steel Filigree 12' h. Art allowance from Humanities Building construction funds. Warsinske was not thinking of Northwest totem poles when he executed his sculpture but rather a form symbolizing a tower and/or torch. The light filigree patterns, cut by a torch, gradually ascend in scale towards the top and create a type of "architectural jewelry."
