Title: For My Grandfather Noye Pride, a Locomotive Engineer
Artist(s): Joe Zucker
Year of Creation: 1998
Medium: Faceted glass in windscreen
Approx. Dimensions (HxWxD): 2 x 130 ft.
Description: Joe Zucker's 130-foot fantasy train chugs animatedly down the platform while serving as a windscreen. Each faceted glass panel shows a cartoon-like flatcar hauling Long Island wares and sights, one to a car. We see an oversized lobster, giant duck, jumbo potatoes, and a big bluefish. Other images are the Montauk lighthouse and a sailboat. Zucker's fanciful images - the bluefish is green, the potato is blue - are rendered in faceted glass, equally powerful day and night. Says Zucker; "I hope that this piece brings travelers enjoyment, that it gives them memories and of Long Island and moments of pleasure." As the title indicates, members of the artist's family were employed on the railroad: "It is in memory of my grandfather and uncles who served as engineers and firemen on the trains of a distant past."

Artist(s): MasPaz (a/k/a/ Frederico Frum)
Year of Creation: 2013
Medium: Painted mural on building façade
Approx. Dimensions (HxWxD): TBD
Description: Created as part of the Huntington Arts Council's SPARKBOOM program presenting opportunities for emerging Long Island artists, this monochromatic mural covers the west façade in the rear of the Arts Council building with fluid masses of interlocking forms.
Executed entirely in black and greys on a white ground, the lower two-thirds of the façade consists of a series of interlocking forms heavily outlined in black. Although some forms appear to be identifiable as representational (e.g. a peace sign, stylized leaves, an open palm, a butterfly), the kaleidoscopic nature of the composition blends these forms together in such a manner that the viewer immediately questions whether such representational associations are indeed accurate. The upper third of the façade consists of more calligraphic forms executed in slightly more muted grey tones.
