How does Quaestio Librae elucidate its Historical information?
The creation of the sculpture was led by the artist who raised the $20,000 needed to create the sculpture, which he began in August 1974. The sculpture was accepted as a gift to the Indianapolis-Marion County Building Authority on August 5, 1975 from Jerry Sanders. Sanders created the sculpture from donated materials, which was finally painted by Indiana Waterproofing and Protective Coating Company. The base for the sculpture was poured by Irwin Materials Company and the uplighting completed by the Commonwealth Electric Company.Sanders first offered to donate the sculpture to the Indiana Convention Center, but this offer was declined after another artist, Stephen Wooldridge, also offered his sculpture "I" for the site. American Fletcher National Bank offered to install the artwork on their property, however the Indianapolis-Marion County Building Authority ultimately accepted the gift.
