Permanent Outdoor Public Art Commission
63 x 124′ mural painting
AT&T BUILDING
25th & South Streets, Philadelphia
At close to 7,800 square feet, this work of public art was Rutstein’s first major mural project. Soaring above the popular Schuylkill Banks multi-use trail , Convergence evokes facets of light on water, aerial maps, tectonic processes, intersections of roads and bridges, and connective pathways. The bright colors of the left wall are a symbolic reference to the annual Odunde Festival a celebration of African Heritage which takes place at the adjacent South Street Bridge. The mural’s prime location invites the attention and imagination of millions of passersby.
