Marrying fine sculpture with abstract practicality, the Arrow of the Sea was first
exhibited by Duquette at his one-man exhibition at the Los Angeles Municipal
Art Gallery at Barnsdall Park, Los Angeles, and currently resides on display at
the Tony Duquette studio. The piece showcases Duquette’s ability to create
unconventionally discreet, yet functional, lighting. Baker pays homage to this
sculptural design, incorporating many of the original materials. The statuesque
tapered form is cast from brass and finished in Dark Bronze. A transparent
Murano glass swordfish snout emits light in a soft cast. Circa 1972.
