Paul Hartigan public sculpture repairs



Paul Hartigan is working with the Wellington City Council on restoring his major neon installation Whipping the Wind on the corner of Balance St and Lambton Quay. While it will take some time to repair the installation completely, it is fantastic to see the panels lit up again after several years of darkness.
