Two Open Rectangles, Excentric, Variation VI 1976

"Two Open Rectangles, Excentric, Variation VI" (1976) is a kinetic sculpture by American artist George Rickey (1907–2002). Rickey is best known for his abstract sculptures that move with the wind. The sculpture consists of two open rectangles attached to a central pole, which is mounted on a concrete base. The rectangles are designed to rotate and oscillate in the wind, creating a dynamic and ever-changing visual experience. Rickey's sculptures are often described as minimalist, geometric, and elegant. His work exemplifies the ideals of kinetic art, which explores the relationship between art and movement.
