GLOBAL PEACE GATEWAY with $100,000 Donation Offered to The United Nations

Posted on: Tuesday, 1 September 2009, 10:00 CDT

PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- THE GLOBAL PEACE GATEWAY Sculpture is offered to The United Nations plus a $100,000 USD donation. The artifact is hand-forged, precision-fitted, labor intensive, wrought iron and brass, approximately 3,000 pounds, 8 sections plus the crest, spanning 24 ft., with a variable height of 6-8 ft. The estimates to duplicate as originally forged vary around $200,000 USD before consideration of cultural or historic value.

The stated mission and vision of the United Nations is to facilitate cooperation in social progress, human rights, and the achieving of world peace. This Gate sculpture is a cultural and historic work of art, presented to help further resonate that attitude.

Should the United Nations decline this offer, the plan B effort for placement would be a traditional University campus.

This sculpture assembly was originally commissioned in 1922 in memory of the Quantum Physics picture phenomena of Guadalupe, Mexico in 1531 with its 2 as yet unanswered questions: 1. the source of the colors and 2. how those colors were applied. The sculpture was de-commissioned in 1996 and given into secular hands in 1999. (See documentation: globalpeacegateway.net Home and Articles pages.) It is now presented as THE GLOBAL PEACE GATEWAY of Art, Science and All Faiths.
