About the Item
Linda Stein, River Knight 617 - Contemporary Bronze Indoor or Outdoor Sculpture
River Knight 617 is one of Linda Stein's most iconic works. It is from her Knights of Protection series, which she started after being forced to evacuate her New York downtown studio for a year post-9/11. Stein's Knights are shield-like forms, and they function simultaneously as defenders in battle, symbols of protection and emblems of pacifism.
This sculpture is made of bronze and can be installed indoors or outdoors.
The sculpture itself is 48 x 24 x 20". It is attached to steel base (please see last image). The steel base is 30 x 14 x 14" and includes a threaded steel rod that inserts into the sculpture.
When the bronze sculpture is installed on the steel base, the overall dimensions are 78 x 24 x 20".
Stein's works are in more than 25 museum permanent collections, including Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Georgia Museum of Art, and Ringling Museum of Art in the US; Victoria Gallery & Museum and Manchester Art Gallery in the UK; Espoo Museum of Modern Art in Finland; and Konstmuseet i Skövde in Sweden.

Throughout her artistic career, Linda Stein's work has addressed issues of persecution and protection, focusing on oppression of the “other” through the lens of anti-bullying and social justice. As result of running for an entire day from the falling Twin Towers in the Ground Zero area of Manhattan, her previously-abstract work after 9/11 became figurative, armor-like, and she realized that she was creating visual and visceral symbols of protection, androgynous sentinel-like figures to stand guard against the foe. Her work often incorporates a family of pop-culture and religious icons like Wonder Woman, Princess Mononoke, Lisbeth Salander, Lady Gaga, Storm and Nausicaa, that start conversations about issues of power and vulnerability. Her works are in more than 25 museum permanent collections, including Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Georgia Museum of Art, and Ringling Museum of Art in the US; Victoria Gallery & Museum and Manchester Art Gallery in the UK; Konstmuseet i Skövde in Sweden; and Espoo Museum of Modern Art in Sweden.
