  • Bill Hueg Figure, Helmets and Boots While Elliot Summons Created the Male Fig- Sculptor Profile Ure and Rifle
    WINTER 2012-2013 On display at Brookgreen Carving Out Your Own Destiny— Gardens, SC A Provocative Idea, Copied One of our members who was vacationing in Florida last winter told me about an inter- esting museum in Winter park—the Albin Polasek Museum & Sculpture Gardens. The museum’s art collection focuses primarily on American representational sculpture and has over 200 works by Czech-born American sculptor Albin Polasek, N.A. The museum itself was his retirement home on scenic Lake Osceola. The Idea Remains The first sculpture you see upon entering the museum grounds isMan Carving His Own Destiny. It is Polasek’s iconic work, and he made several copies of it, including the one at Brookgreen Gardens (top left). And its concept has been copied many times and given various titles by various sculptors. But the idea remains the same. You can see a bronze adaptation of Destiny in front of Chipoltle’s on Excelsior Boulevard near the intersec- tion with Lake Street in Minneapolis. This version, called Self Made Man is by Bobbie Carlyle. It is much more realistic than Polasek’s, which was carved in a Art Deco style in 1908 when he was a student. Polasek’s Impressive Career Born in the Czech Republic, Albin Polasek apprenticed as a wood carver before immi- grating to the U.S. in 1901. He later attended the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia and the American Academy of Art in Rome. During his influential artistic See this bronze at Excelsor and Lake and educational career, Polasek won many awards for his works and was commissioned in Minneapolis.

The living benthic foraminiferal assemblages in brackish-marine (fjords and shallow areas of the Kiel Bight), Kiel Fjord (SW Baltic Sea) were investigated in the years and brackish faunas.

In general, sed- Baltic Sea was provided by Lutze (1965), who found out iment pollution by copper, zinc, tin and lead is assessed as that temperature and salinity rather than substrate were the moderate in comparison with levels reported from other ar- main ecological controls on foraminiferal distribution in this eas of the Baltic Sea. However, the inner Kiel Fjord is still area. Vice versa, Wefer (1976) observed that the abundances exposed to a high load of metals and organic matter due to en- of foraminifera in sediments off Bokniseck (open Kiel hanced accumulation of fine-grained sediments in conjunc- Bight) were regulated by substrate features, hydrodynam- tion with potential pollution sources as shipyards, harbours ics and oxygen content of the bottom water.
