Closing Bell: Steel and Aluminum Sculpture Installed Today at JFK Airport

Today the folks at JFK Airport unveiled a new sculpture on permanent exhibit inside Terminal 4. The Bulgarian-born artist Dimitar Lukanov created the art piece, which is titled “Outside Time.” The steel and aluminum sculpture is 30 feet wide by 15 feet high and is almost completely airborne. According to a press release, it “serves as a poignant sendoff for the millions of air travelers that pass through the building.”

“Outside Time” is the second of a three-part art installation to be installed by Lukanov at Terminal 4. In 2006 he created “Light to Sky” and was commissioned to create this piece for the Terminal in 2012. His third art piece will be installed by April, 2014. “Outside Time” is located on the 4th floor departures level after the TSA checkpoint. Check out a few more photos of the work after the jump.
