Welsh 4 INTRODUCTION A Letter from the NSS Executive Director 87th Annual Awards Exhibition This year brought an international pandemic, social isolation, disturbing images of police brutality, protests, and the violent destruction of public monuments across our nation and abroad. As our world changes around us at an accelerated pace, it is a welcome respite to enter the glorious Brookgreen Gardens. Here, one can take a truly deep breath, experience nature of the low country in all its glory, and view one of the best yet Annual exhibitions by the National Sculpture Society (NSS). The works of sculpture in the 87th Annual Exhibition celebrate the contemporary – and timeless – human figure, speak to the human experience, and explore our relationship to other forms of animal life. National Sculpture Society extends its thanks to all the art lovers, members, visitors, and staff members at Brookgreen Gardens who have supported the NSS Annual Exhibition with enthusiasm for over two decades. As this country’s premier sculpture garden of figurative work, Brookgreen Gardens is an ideal venue for an exhibition that celebrates excellence in sculpture that is inspired by the natural world. We are also deeply grateful to the exhibition prize-donors who are acknowledged in this catalogue for their encouragement of sculptors and sculpture, and to the members of both the jury of selection and the jury of awards for their part in contributing to a successful show. NSS supports a rotating exhibition schedule throughout the year at its own gallery in New York City and at venues around the country for the public to view contemporary sculpture, and for sculptors – both emerging and established – to exhibit their work. Please visit us in midtown Manhattan; we look forward to welcoming you!

  • 2018 Annual Report
    Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee (CCAC) Annual Report Fiscal Year 2018 October 1, 2017 – September 30, 2018 A. Background Public Law 108-15, approved on April 23, 2003, established the CCAC to advise the Secretary of the Treasury on themes and design proposals relating to circulating coinage, commemorative coinage, bullion coinage, Congressional Gold Medals, and national medals. This report presents the CCAC’s recommendations for commemorative coinage in each of the next five calendar years, and summarizes the CCAC’s activities during fiscal year 2018. B. CCAC Recommendations 1. General Recommendations The CCAC encourages the highest standards of artistic excellence for America’s coins and medals. The CCAC recognizes the importance of the nation’s coinage, not only in facilitating the needs of commerce, but also as an artistic medium to recognize the significant achievements of the nation and its people, to honor great national leaders of the past, and to illustrate the foundational values of the republic. With recognition toward these goals, the CCAC serves as a resource in the review and development of proposals for circulating coinage and circulating commemoratives, and through providing recommendations on commemorative programs and medals. 2. Circulating Commemoratives Since the beginning of the 50 State Quarters® Program in 1999, the nation’s pocket change has been augmented with an assortment of new circulating commemorative coins. These coins have been generated through not only the 50 State Quarters® Program but also the Westward Journey Nickel Series™, Presidential $1 Coin Program, Lincoln Bicentennial One- Cent Program, District of Columbia and U.S. Territories Quarters Program, Native American $1 Coin Program and, most recently, the America the Beautiful Quarters™ Program.

  • Zenos Frudakis Sculptor Profile
    ZENOS FRUDAKIS SCULPTURE, MY POETRY I wanted to create a sculpture that almost anyone, regardless of their background, could look at and in- stantly recognize as the struggling to break free. -Zenos Frudakis on Freedom ABOUT ZENOS: Zenos discovered sculpting as a child under the family's kitchen table with a piece of dough given to him by his mother as she was baking bread. The oldest of five children from Greek immigrant parents, Greek art influenced his aesthetic vision as did inspiration from sculptors Michelangelo, Bernini, Carpeaux and Rodin. The poetry of Eliot, Frost, Roethke and Graves has meaning for Zenos, along with post-modern, deconstructionist philosophy. Zenos studied by scholarship at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, completing his formal education with a Bachelors in Fine Art and a Masters in Fine Art at the University of Pennsylvania. Zenos is an Academician of the National Academy of Design, and was the youngest sculptor elected as a Fellow to the National Sculpture Society. He creates personal, expressive sculptures, and excels at conveying the character and vitality of his subjects. As a commissioned sculptor for four decades, his work has been included in lists of top public sculpture in the world. He has been called “The American Rodin.” The art “My goal is to create a profound, sublime work of art which, The artist through concept and design, embodies and retains something worth saving from the fast moving mutability of life.” -Zenos CLAY AND TOOLS WITH HISTORY Giudicci is the Stradivarius of clays. An oil-based clay made in Italy between 45 to 100 years ago, it can be reused, and it does not dry out.

  • George Washington: a New Man for a New Century
    GEORGE WASHINGTON: A NEW MAN FOR A NEW CENTURY By Barry Schwartz George Washington never tolerated the notion, flaunted by some of his successors in the Presidential chair that the voice of the people, whatever its tone or its message, is the voice of God; nor was his political philosophy summed up in “keeping his ear to the ground, ” in order to catch from afar the ramblings of popular approval or dissent.... Will any one say that there is no need of such men now, or that the common people would not hear them gladly if once it were known that they dwelt among us? —The Nation, 18891 Every conception of the past is construed from the standpoint of the concerns and needs of the present.”2 Could the sociologist George Herbert Mead’s statement be applied to George Washington at the 1899 centennial of his death? Was Washington the same man at the turn of the twentieth century, when America was becoming an industrial democracy, as he was at the turn of the nineteenth, when the nation was still a rural republic? The title of the present essay suggests that the question has already been answered, but the matter is more complex than that. Because any historical object appears differently against a new background, Washington’s character and achievements necessarily assumed new meaning from the Jacksonian era and Civil War through the Industrial Revolution. Washington’s changing image, however, is only one part of this story. Focusing on the first two decades of the twentieth century, the other part of the story—“Washington’s unchanging image”—must also be considered.
