The Johnson Sculptures are Coming Back!!!
The Auburn Arts Commission, Inc. is pleased to announce that the wonderful life size bronze sculptures of world renowned artist J. Seward Johnson are returning to Auburn, IN for an Encore! performance in 2010.
We have made the down payment and 12 life size pieces will be arriving in downtown Auburn. These will be new and different works, but like last time they will be available for viewing 24/7 from June 15th through September 15th, 2010. There will also be one “monumental” work by the artist which will be 25 feet tall!!
J. Seward Johnson is an American sculptor whose uncannily realistic figures capture everyday human gestures. Johnson’s life-size cast-bronze statues have been featured in private collections and museums throughout the world. Johnson’s works “celebrate the familiar.” Extremely successful exhibits of his works have been featured in cities such as Troy, OH, Lakeland FL, Lansing, MI, Stamford CN, and Chicago IL to name just a few.
The appreciation of the arts and humanities created through this exhibit for both children and adults plus the positive economic impact on the community make this family-friendly exhibition an outstanding event for DeKalb County, Indiana
By bringing this exhibit to DeKalb County, the Auburn Arts Commission, Inc. will provide an opportunity for both residents and visitors to appreciate and explore visual art in a significant and accessible way.
We look forward to seeing you in downtown Auburn in 2010!
