About the Artwork

Artist Brian Goldbloom's sculpture Vagor III is placed in the center of Spokane Falls Community College's campus, where it evokes the artwork's title, appearing to have just wandered into the space. Goldbloom has created eight major works for the State Art Collection over nearly 40 years, beginning in 1978.

This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with Community Colleges of Spokane.
