15. “Frequent Flyers”

“Frequent Flyers”

“Frequent Flyers” comes from Johnson’s Celebrating the Familiar collection, and these two businessmen with their double-breasted suits, briefcases and newspaper certainly do the trick in this business district. As Johnson says about this collection: “My art is an imitation of life. [The sculptures] do many things; they can warm up … a park or public space and they invite people to come into that space, so that they don’t feel quite alone. They also make good neighbors — they don’t make a lot of noise.”
