The City is pleased to announce that the City’s Public Art Advisory Committee has received a sculpture on temporary loan from Saskatoon artist Douglas Bentham.   

“We are always grateful for an opportunity to enhance our public art program,” says Community Development Manager Kevin Kitchen.  “Public art transforms public spaces and engage with audiences to promote an appreciation for contemporary art practices.  

Titled “Perfect World” the 12m-tall (40 foot) stainless-steel sculpture will be on display near the intersection of Idylwyld Drive and 20^th Street East until June 30, 2025.  

“The sculpture is a tribute to Mother Nature,” Bentham says. “The subject matter speaks for itself: a gleaming sphere held aloft on a man-made column.”  

Bentham is a practitioner of abstract, constructivist sculpture for over forty years.

Other Bentham sculptures on exhibit in Saskatoon include: 

• Unfurled at Spadina Crescent and 25^th Street; and  
• Gentle Rain (on-loan from Remai Modern) in Hyde Park.

Construction is expected to cause traffic delays on two major roadways over the next few weeks.

Beginning the evening of Tuesday, July 5, the 22-year-old Attridge Drive overpass at Circle Drive will undergo preventative maintenance, including repaving, over the next six weeks. One lane will remain open for traffic in each direction, and on and off ramps will remain accessible. At times during construction, there will be work underneath the overpass and lane closures on Circle Drive North can be expected in the evening hours.

Also on Tuesday, July 5, resurfacing will begin in the northbound lanes of Idylwyld Drive North from 51st Street to Marquis Drive. One northbound lane will always remain open to traffic and the project is expected to continue for approximately two weeks.

Saskatoon Transit may be affected by construction. Transit service alerts and real-time bus information are available on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit on desktop.
