New Mattress Factory sculpture "Acupuncture" pierces the Pittsburgh skyline with light

NEXTpittsburgh: The newest public art installation at the Mattress Factory, Acupuncture, is made up of several large light rods that appear to pierce through the top floor of the popular museum. Designed by Hans Peter Kuhn, the permanent light sculpture has been 10 years in the making. The museum, known for bringing artists to Pittsburgh and featuring Pittsburgh artists who create unique, site-specific art installations, recently completed the fundraising, fabricating and planning for the piece that was lit up for the first time at the recent Urban Garden Party in June.
