Loo Wit is an outdoor 1975–1976 sculpture by James Rosati, currently installed at the Seattle University campus in Seattle, Washington.

Description[edit]

The 16-foot (4.9 m) tall abstract sculpture is made of enameled aluminum, and rests on a concrete base.[1]

History[edit]

Loo Wit was purchased by Richard Hedreen, the developer of the Holiday Inn Crowne Plaza Hotel (113 6th Avenue); Hedreen installed the sculpture outside the hotel in 1980.[1] The work was installed at Seattle University on August 31, 2015, after being gifted by Hedreen and his wife, Betty Petri Hedreen.[2]
