Pere Jacques Marquette, Marble sculpture at UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena, US
The white marble sculpture stands 9 feet tall at the south entrance, depicting an abstracted figure of a referee with arms raised and legs apart.
The artwork resulted from the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act program of 1977-1981, which supported university-trained artists in creating community works.
Thomas Queoff used marble remnants from the First Wisconsin Bank building construction to create this substantial public art piece in Milwaukee.
The sculpture maintains its position at coordinates 43.0418389, -87.9137709, near the entrance of the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena for public viewing.
The referee figure features a distinctive negative oval space representing the face, crafted through a lamination process of multiple marble pieces.
