ENDURING HEROES
The recently installed Enduring Heroes cast bronze sculpture depicts a combat soldier standing on a rock and holding the American flag. Placed in Defenders Park on the corner of Colorado Boulevard and North Orange Grove Avenue, the sculpture joined Pasadena's public art collection during a Memorial Day dedication ceremony in 2017. Created by Los Angeles artist Christopher Slatoff—an accomplished sculpture and teacher at the ArtCenter—the piece memorializes 11 area soldiers who lost their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan.
