Why a giant Robocop statue could end up in the middle of Wisconsin

Why a giant Robocop statue could end up in the middle of Wisconsin Other than being awesome, turns out there s a local connection. Author: Robocop living in Wisconsin: you may soon be able to pay your respects to the cyborg officer in person. This is because a statue of the title character recently went up for grabs when the Michigan Science Center where it was due to be installed sometime this year announced it would no longer be hosting the 11-foot-tall work of art. The reason? In a late February announcement, the Detroit museum said that, given the pandemic s unprecedented pressures, MiSci s resources must now be entirely focused on our core mission of serving Michigan s students and families,” per the Detroit Free Press.

Detroit s Giant Statue of RoboCop Is Finally Finished After 10 Years

Detroit s Giant Statue of RoboCop Is Finally Finished After 10 Years Detroit finally finished their giant RoboCop statue after 10 years of work. The Metro Times caught up with Brandon Walley and Jerry Paffendorf to talk about the project they began in 2011. The story goes that some Detroit resident told the city’s mayor, Dave Bing, that they needed a RoboCop statue. From there, the duo crowdfunded an effort to build the monument and raised $17,000 in just three days. Fred Barton Productions helped with a design of the character and then the delays hit. It turns out a giant metal statue is wildly expensive, but the team kept plugging away. Giorgio Gikas stepped in to help deliver the final product. There were structural integrity issues, along with the artist having to beat cancer which held things up for years.

Jay Jurma Venus Bronze Works Giorgio Gikas, center, puts the finishing touches on Detroit s long-awaited RoboCop statue, with help from assistant Nadine Chronopoulos. Now the statue just needs a home. In the spring of 2011, Brandon Walley and Jerry Paffendorf were hard at work in Corktown. Starting with two long-vacant houses near Michigan Central Station, their group, Imagination Station, had dedicated itself to commissioning local public art projects. They d already helped make a few attention-getting pieces a reality, such as the Hygienic Dress League sign that once graced on the Roosevelt Hotel with solar-powered neon seagulls, or Monumental Kitty, Jerome Feretti s brick-and-mortar sculpture near the old Tiger Stadium site.
