Smithsonian

Tomorrow is a big day in my art career, probably the biggest. A work that I created along with Doug Hendrickson in 1975 is going on display at the Smithsonian. The old Patent Office Building has been remodeled over the last six years ($283 million) into the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the National Portrait Gallery. One wing of the American Art Museum is known at the Luce Foundation Center for American Art and that is where our work will displayed. The work, titled "Bronze Vessel", has been owned by the Smithsonian since it was purchased from a Bicentennial exibition in 1976, but it has always been in storage. So this is a big day for Doug and me.
