The River God on Newcastle Quayside.
The River God is a male figure sculpture with a torso and head only - Andre Wallace 1996. The bronze figure sits on top of a steel column apparently blowing at the Siren holding a staff and chain. The work is set on a roundabout at the centre of East Quayside. This, and other pieces on the Quayside, were funded by the Tyne and Wear Development Corporation as part of the Quayside regeneration.
Location: Newcastle quayside
