AMP Building, sculpture (Theme Day: Perspective)

“Amicus Certus” is a sculpture created by Tom Bass in 1960 which is located on the side of the AMP building on Alfred Street. The full motto of the Australian Mutual Provident Society is “amicus certus in re incerta” which means “a sure friend in an uncertain event”. This perspective gives a view of the entrance and also a sense of the curve of the building’s facade.
