More Sculptures in the Park

1. I don't know the name of the sculptor or the piece.
2. The next one fascinated me....  I think the translation is that Shelomo Selinger is Polish and was interned in German concentration camps, found by a doctor half dead in a pile of corpses, secretly immigrated into Palestine in 1946 and fought in the War of Independence. He helped to build a kibbutz and won an Israeli arts prize. He came to Paris to work with granite. This sculpture represents the combat of man against the forces of nature!
3. I didn't take a photo of Biscornet by Anishnabe Manitoumaqua: but here is a link.  It's a totem to Ursa Major, a constellation that guided mariners from St Malo to the New World.
