 North Dakotans LOVE Heavy Metal.... Sculptures

 Geese In Flight

 

North Dakotans love their metal. In a State that Agriculture is such a big part of you have a lot of welders. You will see it's prevalence in the following pictures I took at the North Dakota State Fair. Many of the 4H projects at the fair were metal projects, emphasizing that many of these welding artists start at a very early age. The photo above is the WORLDS largest metal sculptor. It and many more can be seen on "The Enchanted Highway" in Western ND.

Geese In Flight (above) weighs over 78 tons, is 154' long and 110' tall.

Thanks William Feela I wish I would have gotten some shots of the 4H projects as they were very good and also functional.

There are certainly some creative souls in North Dakota, Bob!  I like those cows, sheep and goats.

Good Thursday morning Bob "RealMan" Timm -

Your area artwork looks a lot like New Mexico's.  I find it cool and eye catching.

I think they are all pretty cool Myrl Jeffcoat but I may have to go back and purchase the eagle as it is my company symbol.

I never thought of that John McCormack but it makes sense being ND retirees are North Dakotas biggest export to the South and while they are down there it only stands to reason they would pick up on the art from your area.

Wow Bob.

These are really beautiful.  I love the eagle, and the first photo of the enchanted highway.  This kind of work is enchanting.  Thanks for alerting me to you photos and post.  A

Thank you A. I think I need to go purchase that eagle before the fair leaves town. I hope you took a look at the enchanted highway link as those are amazing HUGE sculptures.

Bob - that is truly the biggest collection of heavy metal that I have seen.  I am sure that was just a small piece of the state fair.
