Bust of York, Bronze sculpture at Mount Tabor Park in Portland, United States
The four-foot bust depicted York, an African American member of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, made from wood, urethane, and bronze paint.
Artist Todd McGrain created and installed the sculpture in February 2021 on the pedestal where the Harvey Scott monument previously stood until October 2020.
The sculpture represented the recognition of York's contributions as the only African American member who participated in the Lewis and Clark western territory exploration.
The temporary installation remained in place until July 2021, when it sustained damage from vandalism and was subsequently moved into storage.
The artist initially maintained anonymity and placed the sculpture without official permission, making it an unauthorized public art installation in the park.
