Luis Gutierrez Bridge

Working with steel and concrete, the artists' goal was to emphasize the significance of the bridge as a span across time that reaches to our past: a span that connects times, cultures and technologies.

Like ghosts from the past, cottonwood leaves incorporated along the steel cut bridge serve as a unifying element and tribute to their once great abundance. The plentiful fish and fowl of a time now gone are also recognized on the bridge piers. Artists David Johnson Vandenberg, Gregory Schoon, Jesse Augustine, Brenda Semanick, and Dave Dobler incorporated motifs of the past using modern art techniques.
Address: 777 W Cushing St. (Cushing Street at Clearwater over the Santa Cruz River)
