Full Description
A rare look inside the art world and art making by an internationally recognized sculptor and artist.
Murray Dewart has built large
public sculptures around the world over the course of 50 years. He is
also a fine writer. Poignant, literate, spiritual, and poetic, this
memoir narrates the inside dramas and politics of the art world, the
galleries, collectors, and public commissions.
Dewart shares his
experience of the triumphs and the heartbreak. Compiled from his daily
journals, the narrative is spirited and infectious, sharp with revealing
details and humor, full of personal musings and colorful, sometimes
bawdy anecdotes. There is a soulful dimension to this story, as Dewart
asks the big questions about life and purpose.
He is both an artist and a
family man, weaving together the personal and the professional with an
authentic voice from inside the discipline of art.
