Neat sculpture idea for highschool (and African American Art)

I just got a link request to add the Paul R Jones Collection to IAD (which I
will do). I wanted to pass on this really cool wire sculpture. Your high
school students could do something like this - tie it in with Alexander
Calder. Not too hard to do and easy on the budget.
