Massive 25-foot sculpture to be permanently installed outside U-M Museum of Art
Titled โBehind the Walls,โ the sculpture was acquired through a gift by long-time university supporters J. Ira and Nicki Harris. Jim Harbaugh currently holds the J. Ira and Nicki Harris Family Head Football Coach position. The Harrises have long admired Plensaโs work, and have several of his pieces in their private collection. โNicki and I are thrilled to help bring โBehind the Wallsโ to UMMA,โ J. Ira Harris said in a statement. Outside UMMA, โBehind the Wallsโ will replace Mark di Suveroโs โShang,โ which was on long-term loan since 2009.
