"The forward thrust of his [Theodore Roszak] Forms in Space, forty-two feet long and executed in aluminum over stainless steel, evoked the progressive development of movement, from natural means of human locomotion and the motion of aquatic and airborne creatures to the technological dynamics of the airplane, submarine, and rocket. Sited near the Hall of Science, adjacent to the Space Park, it complemented the theme of the surrounding exhibits with an appropriately metaphorical response to the concept of man's aspiration toward space travel." [Helen A. Harrison, "Art for the Millions or Art for the Market?" Remembering the Future, p.145]
