Summary

Description
English: The lefthand side of the plaque reads:

"The great tradition of western art has been and should continue to be not merely representational work but the idealization of the human form, the glorification of both heroic individuals and the heroic possibilities of mankind."

- Pierce Rice

On the right, the text reads:

"The Flair is dedicated to the Olympic athletes and all those who exemplify determination and dedication in the pursuit of excellence. The Flair celebrates the triumph of the human spirit and reflects the Olympic credo that the essence lies not in the victory but in the struggle.

During the Flair Across America nationwide tour The Flair reached out to thousands, inspiring all who witnessed the beauty and strength of this heroic monument.

The Flair is a gift of the artist to the state of Georgia and the city of Atlanta. It is dedicated on July 8, 1996 with gratitude to Governor Zell Miller, Mayor Bill Campbell, GWCC Executive Director Daniel Graveline, and the hundreds of people who, by believing in a vision, made

the Flair Across America project possible."
