Artist's Description
Here is a color image of this fantastic, large-scale sculpture by Seward Johnson. This was taken at Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ.
The 26-foot-tall (7.9 m) 34,000-pound (15,000 kg) Seward Johnson sculpture, Forever Marilyn, is manufactured of painted stainless steel and aluminum. It is a super-sized sculptural tribute to Marilyn Monroe's iconic scene from Billy Wilder's 1955 infidelity comedy, The Seven-Year Itch, with the figure imitating the instant that a blast of air from a subway vent raises her dress.

The statue was given a farewell sendoff during Palm Springs Village Fest on March 27, 2014, to be displayed at an exhibition honoring Seward in New Jersey.
