The City of Reno is installing new sculptures at Bicentennial Park in downtown Reno. The new sculptures include “Circles” by Chris Rench, Ric Blackerby’s “Daring Young Man on the Trapeze,” Carolyn Guerra’s “Rhinoman” for $20,000, and Pierre Riche’s “Iron Horse.”

The park was initially intended to rotate its sculptures each year, but an alleged threat of legal action curtailed that plan early this year. The city instead purchased new sculptures.

The total for the project by the city is $80,000 for sculpture purchases and installation.
