Presented by Gadsden Arts Center and Museum
Through August 24, 2019



Come see Construction to Commemorate, a 2011 monumental sculpture by Mark Dickson, created with welded steel and stainless steel that stands 7 feet tall. This sculpture is an entanglement of steel and fire and appears modern, while at the same time reveals elements of the distant past. The artist works in his studio in Railroad Square, Tallahassee, and teaches sculpture part time as a member of the adjunct faculty at North Florida College in Madison, Florida.
