Giant Statues of Vulcan and Venus

Ashland, KY

Two roughly 30-foot bronze figures of the Roman deities Vulcan and Venus stand along the Ohio River beside an even taller abstract sculpture called Genesis. Installed at Riverfront Park in 2019, the enormous figures turn Ashland's public riverfront into a surprisingly monumental art stop.
