This angel is made of knives that were
surrendered to police or were once kept
as forensic evidence. Some are engraved
with the victims’ names, and each blade
was cleaned of ‘biological material’ and
dulled by artist Alfie Radley, who created
the piece for the British Ironwork Centre
to help bring awareness to the knife
violence issue in the UK. SourceSource 2Source 3
Leon Gast, director of the Oscar-winning documentary When We Were Kings (1996), said of his experience producing the film: “In my career, I spent five days with the Grateful Dead, I travelled with the Hells Angels, and I went to Folsom Prison [for Johnny Cash’s concerts in 1968]. But ‘The Rumble in the Jungle’ topped them all. I built a relationship and a rapport with Muhammad Ali and I could never top that experience.”
