The Golden Section

John Dirks graduated from San Diego State College in 1937 with a degree in art. Ten years later, he returned to teach at his alma mater and never left until his retirement in 1976. SDSU acknowledged Dirks’ contributions in 1972 with a Distinguished Teaching Award, which gave him the status of emeritus professor.

Now, Dirks is being recognized by the Mingei International Museum in San Diego’s Balboa Park. A retrospective of his sculpture spans four decades and includes more than 40 pieces of art. In a conversation with the Mingei’s Karen Seo, Dirks, now 92, spoke about working with wood:

“As a boy, I started making things with just a jackknife, whittling. My father and I made a whole lot of tiny model ships, with sails made of paper. We used to sail those in Wabash Pond (in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, where Dirks grew up). (Later), I did a lot of sculptures, large and small, mostly from rare wood.

“The wood is sensitive to inside space, all the narrow sticks in the center. The next space is a golden section of the previous one and those negative spaces are exactly the same…the builders of the Parthenon (used) the golden section. Diego Rivera, Gauguin, van Gogh, Rembrandt, all used it for basic measurements.”

Dirks described his best pieces as having “inner life.” The artist’s own inner life was on display every day in the classroom for students perceptive enough to recognize it.

Cary Bickler was one such student. He describes himself as a young man on the verge of a career as a professional golfer on the PGA tour, yet haunted by the instinct that he was an artist at heart.

“I began taking art and sculpting classes from Professor Dirks, and my confidence began to grow. When, after a few years, I became his assistant, I began to realize that Professor Dirks taught by simply expressing himself though his own unique, creative view of the world. I was compelled to do the same. I gained confidence in my own artistic expression.”

Today, Bickler designs magnificent, artistic golf courses. “I’m painting canvases in my mind of green, rolling landscapes and planning how the light and shadows will dance across the contours of every golf course I design,” he said. “I call upon Mother Nature to guide my hand, but it all started with Professor Dirks and a small artist’s brush.”

The Mingei International Museum’s exhibit, “John Dirks, Sculptor – A Retrospective,” includes “Experimental Tall Building Concepts,” pictured at right. It was sculpted of walnut and Alaskan white cedar.
