Details of the “Running In” statue, a bronze representation of three oil workers •1983 • Phase Two, @official_wem • The sculpture is by Robin Bell. • According to the artists website: This was the artist’s first large commission. It was also his first full figure, high realism sculpture. Fortunately the artist knew something about the subject matter having worked one winter in the Alberta mountains on an oil rig to help pay for another “sculpture expedition” to Italy. In the sculpture the artist presents three ages of man. The eldest dressed as those during the first Canadian oil strike. Originally designed and presented for public access. Every piece of clothing has a different surface quality. • West Edmonton Mall 8882 170 Street, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

According to “Best Edmonton Mall” an unofficial fan site of @official_wem : The “Running In” statue, a bronze representation of three oil workers, has been present in West Edmonton Mall since its Phase Two expansion in 1983. The sculpture is by Robin Bell [ http://www.robinbell.net/project/188/ ], who in fact was familiar with the subject matter. According to his comments on the statue, he worked in the Alberta oil sector to help fund a trip to Italy (which he wanted to take for purposes relating to his art). The sculpture has three stages of man, with the eldest in dress which would be common when Oil was first struck in Alberta. All three have different and unique surface qualities. The sculpture currently resides just outside of the Phase One food court, West Edmonton Mall 8882 170 Street, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
