Art en Route: "16 Smokes"
Fabricated steel, painted, 1984
Artist: George Greenamyer
In the form of two improbable vehicles on oversized wheels, 16 Smokes is a visual metaphor for Metrorail and the movement of commuters from the suburbs to urban areas. The sculpture is topped with eight houses, each with two chimneys. Inspired by the American Industrial Age, Greenamyer uses vehicles with multiple houses to refer to the mobility of our society.
