Steve Gillman of Eugene was selected from a field fo 30 Northwest artists seeking com mission to execute a major sculpture for the University. A jury of various University personnel chose Gillman's entry, an integrated group of r polished slabs of basalt, for its sensitive and effective use of a material that is particularly ap propriate to an earth science theme Basalt, a rock of volcan ic origin, is native to the Eugene area and a major object of study by the geology department. Gillman says that his sculpture, as a group of shapes that are "fitting yet disconnect ed." symbolizes the fragmen tary nature of geological evidence such as found in ex cavations of animal skeletons. Gillman earned a master of fine arts degree in sculpture from the University in 1976 He has taught at Lane Community College and currently has an exhibition of his work at the Vorpal Gallery in San Francisco Funds for the art work were appropriated in 1962, shortly after the building was complet ed. The source of funds was an unrestricted gift from Flora Ward, received by the University in the 1930s.
