    THE CITY OF WINTER PARK on the green2018-2019 Welcome! The Winter Park Public Art Advisory Board is proud to display six large-scale sculptures by David Hayes (1931-2013). His polychrome abstract sculptures reference nature, and are presented to ignite the imagination with their color and sense of movement, even as they remain stationary. The sculptor, like so many artists, wanted his viewers to come to their own interpretations of his work. As Hayes was quoted as saying, “The perennial question is: What’s it supposed to be? And I always answer: It’s whatever you interpret it to be…it’s based on imagination – my imagination and the viewer’s imagination.” Looking closely, viewers may see allusions to leaves or trees, but the ironical juxtaposition of steel and natural forms proves provocative. Another contradictory aspect is that even though nature is the inspiration, primary colors do not appear in nature as they do in the sculptures. These forms are bright and bold to provide visual delight. In 1953, Hayes received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Notre Dame, Indiana. In 1955, he received a Master of Fine Arts degree from Indiana University, Bloomington, where he studied with David Smith. Hayes had some 400 exhibitions and is included in over 100 institutional collections, including those of the Museum of Modern Art and Guggenheim Museum in New York. Wave What color is water? Has it ever seemed orange or yellow? What time of day did this happen? What color is it when it breaks over your head? How does it feel? It’s exciting, isn’t it?

I hope that this guide helps to make your time in New Britain more engaging. As you explore the pages that follow, one thing will become unmistakably clear: New Britain is a unique community, full of diverse and deeply-rooted cultures and, of course, wonderful people. Our economy, arts, food, and civic life all reflect our breadth of shared experiences and ethnicities, and have made us a stronger and more vibrant community as a result. New Britain has long been known as “The Hardware City.” Throughout the 20th century, our economy was anchored by large-scale manufacturing. Companies like The Stanley Works, American Hardware, Fafnir Bearing and Corbin-Russwin all called New Britain home. But as times & technology changed, and manufacturing began leaving the northeast, our economy suffered the same fate as many old factory towns in New England. Today, New Britain is a City is experiencing a rebirth with the opening of new businesses and the completion of infrastructure projects like the Beehive Bridge and our award-winning Complete Streets Masterplan.
