The Discovery
1990
Crestwood (Harlem Line)
Metro-North Railroad
Arthur Gonzalez created bronze sculptures for three stations on Metro-North Railroad's Harlem line - "Time Catcher" at Fleetwood Station, "The Finder/The Seekers" at Tuckahoe Station, and "The Discovery" at Crestwood Station.
The works use the themes of time and travel as the central focus. "The Finder/The Seekers" at Tuckahoe includes a set of figures that depict early settlers and explorers ringed by children's toys that echo the adventures and sense of discovery experienced by the area's early settlers. "Time Catcher" at Fleetwood is a polychrome bronze featuring a historic map of the region and a worker with his tools, a tribute to those who built the railroad. "The Discovery" was de-installed in 2019.
