the secret bench of knowledge

The Secret Bench of Knowledge (formerly Secret Bench, Lost Paradise) is a sculpture created by Canadian artist Lea Vivot. It is located at the national library Library and Archives Canada. The sculpture was laid at about 9 AM on the morning of May 1, 1994 in front of a crowd of about 300 people. One year later Vivot removed it and it was replaced four years later by Eugene Boccia from Toronto. The sculpture has many messages inscribed on it, written by school children, about the important and pleasure of reading. The unveiling of the new statue was done by Vivot, assisted by a young blind boy named Gabriel McBride, from Spruce View, Alberta, who inscribed his message in Braille.
