On
Thursday evening, guests at the Lincoln Arts Institute
were treated to the impressive works of three sculptors,
Dennis French, Jason Hoffman and Randy Reid. It was
opening night for the July show and those in attendance
enjoyed some amazing pieces in a variety of styles and
sizes.
 |
The piece entitled "High Yield" by Randy Reid
may have been the smallest. On a round turned
wood piece no larger than a small dinner plate,
Reid created a meticulously detailed cornfield. |
In contrast, Jason
Hoffman offered perhaps the largest piece inside the
gallery with his table entitled "Champlain." The tall
glass table was intricately designed using various
mediums, including metal, wood, and concrete. Bigger
still was the "Big Mistake Out" bottle created by
Hoffman and displayed outside the building.
|
Not to be outdone, Dennis French presented among
his works this fascinating locomotive clock
entitled "Magritte Bieder." The work done by
French was on loan for the exhibit from the city
of Normal. |
 |
Lincoln Daily News will
have additional coverage from the exhibit in a future
edition.
