作品: Counting Crows
地点: 4th Street SW夹13rd Ave
作者:Evelyn Grant (毕业于ACAD)
时间:2001
简介: ““Counting Crows” is based on a traditional English rhyme, which was used to predict ones fortune according to the number of crows seen. The rhyme is presented in circular fashion, printed on the inlaid tile at the base of the piece. Pictorial symbols are also represented to enhance the piece: mirth (the sun, with the logo of the Coney island amusement park), happiness (the eight of hearts), gaiety (the nine of clubs), a new moon (n new beginnings), and of course, the pointing fingers counting the crows.” By Evelyn Grant.

This is a natural for Fourth Street with so many lovely structures around the community to work with." By Rick Silas.

作品: Scene and Heard
地点: 4th Street SW夹19th Ave (后面是个中餐馆”Peking Dragon”)
作者: Terry Gregoraschuk
时间:1995
简介: Four cows and a dog amble south along 4th Street. The 5-foot high cows are constructed of steel, which will rust over time to resemble the warm, rich colour of Hereford cattle. The 2-foot high dog is made from stainless steel, offering a glittering contrast to the rich brown of the cows. The artist chose the animal theme as a traffic-stopper and a reminder of Calgary's "Cowtown" image. Many hours of grinding and polishing were required to create the final images.
