Abstract

In 1971, negotiations began with Pablo Picasso to erect a 100-foot high sculpture called "Bust of a Woman" on the Tampa campus. The work, a tabletop model of which is seen in the photo, was never built because sufficient funding could not be raised.

Alt Text

Five people standing around a table with a model of a proposed sculpture, all dressed in formal attire from the mid-20th century. The photo appears to be in an indoor setting with curtains seen hanging on a wall in the background.
