Summary[edit]

Description

Man poses with peace symbol next to the 15-foot-high, 300-pound replica of the statue of the Goddess of Democracy from the then-recent protests in Tiananmen Square, Beijing during PeaceWorks Park vigil, an anti-war protest action that occurred in Gas Works Park, Seattle, Washington, U.S. beginning Sunday, August 26, 1990 and carrying on through the end of the Gulf War.

The statue arrived on Saturday, October 27, arriving across Lake Union in a canoe paddled by nine Suquamish Indians. The statue had been constructed by Chinese and other international students at Seattle University under the guidance of artist and (at that time) student advisor Jeff Hengst, who later became a prominent Seattle artist, and is now known simply as "Hengst". Around the base of the statue are boards containing news clippings about the vigil.
