What is the Good?
by Gregory Stallmeyer
(Monticello, IL)
The Public Art League is proud to welcome What is the Good? by local artist Gregory Stallmeyer to the Boneyard Crossing, near The Station Theater, in Urbana. This amazing piece was installed in advance of the 2021 Boneyard Arts Festival and will be enjoyed throughout the event weekend and beyond.
What is the Good? stands 9' tall and is 7.5' wide. The sculpture was created using steel, plexiglass, resin and automotive paint. The artist states that the sculpture was inspired by a 2013 philosophical radio drama titled "Darkside."
The installation was made possible through collaboration with the Urbana Arts and Culture Program who sponsored and provided installation assistance. A big thanks to the Urbana Arts and Culture Program for making the display of What is the Good? possible!
In addition to What is the Good?, PAL also worked with Greg to install Beneath the Surface in 2019. Beneath the Surface is currently installed in Monticello thanks to a collaboration between PAL and the Monticello Area Arts Council.
What is the Good? represents the 91st sculpture installed in the community through the Public Art League program.
