A Day Out consists of four bronze pigs, each depicted as if they were exploring the city. Located in Rundle Mall and commissioned by the Adelaide City Council, the pigs are named Truffles, Horatio, Oliver and Augusta. A Day Out was unveiled on 3 July 1999.[1]
Progress was designed by Lyndon Dadswell, who was regarded as one of Australia's most accomplished sculptors.[2] The work represents the "spirit of progress", and is situated on what was for many years the David Jones building in Rundle Mall, having been installed in 1963 – four years after the work was completed. Dadswell studied for a time under Rayner Hoff, noted in Adelaide as the sculptor for the South Australian National War Memorial.[3]
The South African War Memorial was the second public equestrian statue to be unveiled in Australia.[4] Designed by Adrian Jones and commissioned to commemorate the South Australians who served in the Second Boer War, it was unveiled in 1904. The granite pedestal upon which it stands was designed by Garlick, Sibley and Wooldridge.
More commonly referred to as the "Mall's Balls", The Spheres was commissioned by the Hindmarsh Building Society, who donated the work to the Adelaide City Council in 1977.[3]
