The Association for Public Art (formerly the Fairmount Park Art Association) acquired and installed Iroquois in 2007 after it was donated by art patron and humanitarian David N. Pincus.^[3] The executive director of the Association for Public Art, Penny Balkin Bach, described the gift as "the most generous contribution made by a private donor to public sculpture in Philadelphia,"^[4] and "the most important contemporary sculpture to come to Philadelphia since Claes Oldenburg's Clothespin in 1976."^[5] Before Iroquois came to Philadelphia, the sculpture had been on loan to the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park in Grand Rapids, Michigan.^[6] The sculpture stands alongside Symbiosis, a stainless steel "dendroid" sculpture by artist Roxy Paine that was installed by the Association for Public Art in 2014.^[7]
