The Richmond District
Rochambeau Playground
25th Avenue between California and Clement
The artwork celebrates sports at Rochambeau Playground. Two concrete pillars clad in ceramic tile are topped by an 8-inch mosaic tennis ball and a 22-inch mosaic basketball. They mark the end of the handicapped ramp and the wall between the children’s playground and the blacktop courts.
The work is by Johanna Poethig who has shown up numerous times in this website.
I’m really getting an education about public art in San Francisco. I had no idea.
These are really wonderful!! Great pieces of art!
I like the way the sculptures fit so well into their location. Very nice public art.
What fun!
This is truly wonderful. The detail that went into this is just mind boggling!
Thank you so much for sharing at The Creative Exchange.
Have a wonderful day!
