About the event

Rising up in the central valley of Scotland, the Kelpies appear like steel sentinels.


In NY, scaling the skyline they surface ethereally against the shining glass and steel of the skyscrapers.


From mischievous foals to living landmarks, the Kelpies transport us like eddies in time to a different age.


In Scotland, the 100ft steel sculptures stand at the crossroads between the east and west and the land and the sea. In NY the are a block from Times Square at the iconic public library.


They represent the clash between nature and development.


The Charlotte Dundas steamboat, replacing the Clydesdale horses the Kelpies are based on: horse power for steam power.
