Bright

Is it a coincidence that the word bright rhymes with the word light.  Who created all of these words anyway?  (that's a rhetorical question)

 
Last time, which was my first time, I visited the Richard Riordan Central Library, 630 West 5th Street in Los Angeles, I noticed a fountain "Clear".  At the time I didn't notice that "Clear" was actually one third of a fountain known as "Spine" created by Jud Fine in 1993.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to walk by these fountains, admire them and assume the one above is titled, "Bright" and the one immediately below is titled, "Lucid" and the fountain in the last photo in this blog post is titled, "Clear".  What isn't easy to find is that the three fountains are known as "Spine" and who designed them.  

Plus, if possible I am interested to find out of all the infinite possibilities of what might have been created and installed at this entrance to the library, what inspired the choices made.  They must have known that these choices would have to be lived with and not changed for many years to come.

Don't be concerned that there will be a quiz and/or that you will remember any of this.  I had already forgotten everything except that I admired the fountain since I posted about "Clear".  That is one of the joys of the internet in my interesting point of view.  I don't have to remember 'cuz I can always look it up. 

 
Maybe it is interesting points of view like the above (no need to remember stuff 'cuz there is the internet) that keep me bright, lucid and clear.  Hmmmm!

Anyway, I really enjoy this fountain.  So thanks to Jud Fine and everyone involved with having it at the entrance to the Richard Riordan Central Library.
