        The Spirit of Bonfire, 1991

        By Fred Adickes (b. 1929) - bronze

        Located in Aggie Park

        A gift of the Class of ’87, this three-part installation depicts the Aggie tradition of Bonfire. Started in the 1920s as a rally before the Texas A&M/University of Texas football game, the early bonfires were made of community trash, boxes, and debris, instead of the neatly stacked log pile it later became.
