- Santa Clara County Library, Milpitas branch

Daytime interior photo of sculpture art "Fertile Ground" by Cork Marcheschi. Various electic items hang from the ceiling in various geometric shapes and objects (e.g., eyeglasses, plates, wire-frame cubes, rectangles).Daytime interior photo of two stainless-steel wall plaques, and a semi-circular shelf holding a blown-glass yellow orb, maybe several inches in diameter. The top plaque is larger, and shows the smiling face of an older bearded white male. The text reads "Ed Cavallini" and "Tower", and some tiny text about his contributions to the library. The bottom plaque is hard to read but it says "Fertile Ground" and "Cork Marcheschi, 2008", and talks a bit about how the art speaks to how libraries can represent catalysts for ideas to appear.Daytime interior photo of sculpture art "Fertile Ground" by Cork Marcheschi.

This camera angle shows a bit more of the sculpture, including what looks like a metal orrery (i.e., a model of the planets around the sun), and a few stacked items which include a key.
