香港六合彩开奖直播 Art Professor sculpts his way into public view in Tennessee

Cliff Tresner, an associate professor of art at the University of Louisiana at Monroe, was selected as a winner in a national juried competition in June.

He was chosen as one in six winners at the Fifth Annual Outdoor Sculpture Competition of Art in Public Places at Bristol, Tenn., on June 22.

Tresner鈥檚 apprized sculpture, 鈥淭ower of Babel,鈥� is a tower of words and letters. Tresner said that while he often uses words and letters in his drawings, this piece of art represented his first time incorporating them into a sculpture.

鈥淚t is about communication and miscommunication, and how words are not always the best tools for communicating,鈥� explained Tresner.

There were 42 sculpture entries at this year鈥檚 competition by 21 artists.

Tresner, who has been teaching sculpture and drawing at 香港六合彩开奖直播 since 1997 and is the director of 香港六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 Sculpture Garden, also advocated the 24-hour accessibility of the sculptures in Art in Public Places. He called it 鈥渁rt for everybody.鈥�
