Blue Dancer

Blue Dancer is a stainless steel figure by the sculptor Michael Alfano, made in 2022 for Of Many Minds, his twenty-sculpture show along the Boston Harborwalk at the Charlestown Navy Yard, near Menino Park and the Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital. The National Sculpture Society records that the show "opened in June 2022 and runs through December 2023", and Wikidata gives the work a removal date of 2023. It is held here as a work that stood, not one a visitor can go and see.

No longer in place

This work was removed in 2023, so please do not make a journey to photograph it. The record is kept because the sculptor, the year and the place it stood are worth knowing, and Wikidata is where that came from.

Do you recognize the dance?

We have not filed this one under a style. Plenty of sculptures show dancing without showing a particular dance — but if you can see a form here, telling us connects this sculpture to everything else we hold on it.
