Bronze prices up, thieves steal 300 pound sculpture
NEW HAMPSHIRE (Commodity Online): At a time when metals prices are soaring, theft of all base metals is on the rise across the globe.
In a recent incident, a New Hampshire art center officials said they were baffled by the theft of a 300-pound cast bronze sculpture from the facility’s garden.
Jennifer Sunderland, director of the Four Corners Art Center in Tiverton, said it took four people to carry the sculpture of a woman, ‘Embrace of Life II’ by artist Mimi Sammis, from a truck when it was installed last spring, but thieves managed to take it unnoticed from its metal base this week, the Providence Journal reported Wednesday.
Police Lt. Patrick Jones said investigators are in contact with local scrap metal companies in case the thieves attempt to sell it for the value of the bronze. He said the sculpture has an estimated value of $30,000.
