TAILIEUCHUNG - Looking at Sculpture: A Family Guide

While Nesjar created the sculpture on the green in front of The Art Museum, he conducted a unique, outdoor seminar. The process involved building wooden forms to establish the basic shapes of the columnar pedestal and then a similar structure for the head itself. After completion of the wooden form, a mixture of crushed stone (imported from Norway) and iron tie-rods was packed within, and liquid concrete was injected under pressure from the base up. Nesjar later sandblasted the outer skin to expose the colorful aggregate. The opportunity to participate in the re-creation of a master’s imagina- tive work is but one instance of the contribution the Putnam Memorial Collection. | Looking at Sculpture A Family Guide James A.
