I loved walking through and stopping to look at this sculpture some 25 years ago. I echo the query earlier in this thread, if anyone knows where it went after Boston Properties renovated. I have a tickle at the edge of my brain that it was a long-term loan from the artist, who maybe took it back. It’d be great to see it again on public display.Boston Tapestry sculpture being installed at the Prudential Center, 1960s.View attachment 18817
Holy shit! I check the archives daily but had never seen that one. Amazing footage!
That page has some incredible footage, like this one as well!
That was a quick half hour. I thought the music was great. Production reminded me a bit of Koyaanisqatsi. Great find. Thanks for posting.
Questionable music but a fascinating video nonetheless.

That was a great watch. The music is what's called 12-tone technique and was about as modernist/brutalist as music got in the 20th century... without getting too technical it basically eschews your standard harmonies and chord progressions for an any-note-goes mentality. I don't always love it but I do appreciate how cutting edge it was for the time.
ANYWAY everyone here should watch it. It's really well produced and has some fantastic camera angles. And if not then you're in luck because I pulled a bunch of screenshots...
Anyone know why the skybridge had such a different aesthetic from the rest of the development?
