| Sacramento to launch Olympic Landscape Sculpture Design Contest Festivities for the 2008 Olympic Landscape Sculpture Design Contest and Exhibition will take place from October 9 through October 24, 2007 in Sacramento, California. An opening ceremony and reception will take place on October 9, 2007 to honor the delegates from the Beijing Organizing Committee. The Beijing Organizing Committee (BOCOG) selected Alan Osborne, owner of the Art Foundry Gallery, to present this important event due to his International recognition as a sculptor specializing in public works, and the Foundry's reputation as one of the premier bronze foundries in Northern California with a history that goes back to 1979. The Art Foundry is an upscale venue with 2,300 square feet of exhibition space located in historic warehouse district in downtown Sacramento just blocks from the State Capitol. This neighborhood is an up and coming art corridor in the region. The Art Foundry shows fine art paintings, mixed media, and original ceramic and bronze sculpture in their main gallery. The focus of the gallery is contemporary art with a celebration of art's classical roots. Currently touring in China, the exhibition will move on to New York after its Sacramento run scheduled for October 9 through the 22nd at The Art Foundry Gallery, 1021 R. St., Sacramento, CA. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
