A Summer Tradition for Friends
In 1986, Larry Harvey built a 9-foot sculpture of a man-made from wood. At the end of the summer, he decided to burn it on a beach in San Francisco. It began as a ritual for a few friends until more people wanted to participate. Due to the success, Harvey continued to do this every year, only each year he made the sculpture bigger. In 1987, the sculpture of the man was 15 feet tall, and in 1989 it was close to 40 feet tall!
