German-born Australian sculptor Inge King is a Melbourne institution. From her thirties until her death in 2016 at the age of 100 King lived in Melbourne, and her thumbprint is all over the city, with several of her most recognisable artworks dotted around our streets.
‘Rings of Saturn’ was completed three decades after her famous ‘Forward Surge’ but is just as impactful. The stainless steel sculpture, made of encircling rings, stands in a fair quieter location in the gardens of Heide Museum of Modern Art in Bulleen. It reaches four and a half metres up to the sky.
