Tiny sculptures displayed
University News Bureau
A collection of sculptures — each small enough
to fit inside a shoebox — will be displayed at the
University's art museum beginning Saturday.
The first international Shoebox Sculpture Exhibi
tion, encompassing a wide range of sculptural forms,
styles and materials, will be shown in only 11 other
art museums in the United States and Mexico.
"Every possible combination of materials is
represented in the exhibit, which shows how artists
from different nations meet the challenge of space
and scale constraints," says Richard Paulin, museum
director.
The more than 50 works included in the exhibit
are by artists from all over the United States and
Japan, Paulin says.
"Exemplifying the many unique and unusual
works is a firebrick and koa wood sculpture by Ron
Kowalke, a Hawaiian artist,” he says.
The display, scheduled to run through Dec. 18,
may be viewed in the museum's Contemporary
Northwest Gallery.
Pieces in the collection, organized by the Univer
sity of Hawaii Art Gallery, were selected by interna
tionally recognized sculptor Marisol of New York Ci
ty and Morio Shinoda of Tokyo, Paulin says.
Also on display in the art museum through Dec.
18 is one of the country's most comprehensive col
lections of Ch'ing Dynasty costumes, including
handmade silk tapestries and embroidered imperial
robes, uniforms, liturgical garments and bridal wear.
The museum is open free to the public from
noon to 5 p.m. Wednesdays through Sundays.
