Description: Roadrunner 66 is an illuminated sculpture of New Mexico’s state bird. LED lighting technology is used as a sustainable tribute to the glowing tradition of neon signs along historic Route 66. The sculpture's polygon shape draws viewers in as a striking geometric landmark by day and a glowing invitation for people to enjoy Downtown Albuquerque nightlife and culture. The art invites viewers to discuss the beauty of traveling our state, the history and symbolism of Route 66 signage, and enjoy the downtown corridor for City Brights III. The work will be shown at several locations for optimal viewing during the Artwalk and Route 66 centennial celebration.
