Ö Clackamas Print Wednesday, April 18, 2007 ntertainment Sculptors’ art adorning campus . Katie Wilson || Co-Editor-in-Chief The sculptor and painter Michelangelo once said he saw the angel in a block of marble, and carved until he set it free. The sculptures cropping up on campus recently sometimes look more like the artists are trying to put the angel back in, with varying success. They are part of the fifth Outdoor Sculpture Exposition that opened last Monday and will run through Sat, July 7. Rick True, one of the college’s art instructors and the organizer of the event, has gathered a wide range of artists to the campus. “I like to try new people,” he said. “I always invite the solid ones that I know will bring good work ... from the Eugene through Seattle area. Sometimes I’m a little surprised by what they bring.” The pieces range in size. One tow ers above students in the grass lot of the courtyard outside Barlow, and other smaller sculptures are hidden up in the branches of trees between the Art Center and the Bookstore. “You have to find them,” said True, as he pointed out one sculpture hanging far above in a tree near the Bookstore. There will be an artists’ recep tion on May 19 from noon to 3 p.m. This will lead into the college’s 40th Anniversary Celebration. “It will be kind oflike a festival out here,” said True. While the expo itself only lasts through July 7, True hopes to keep a few of the pieces here at the campus, but no final decisions have been made yet The artists in the expo are: David Andersen, MJ. Anderson, Michael Creger, Shelby Davis, Devin Laurence Field, Gilles Foisey, Lary Graves, David Haslett, Harold Hoy, Lee Imonen, Lee Kelly, Michi Kosuge, David Laubenthal, Ken MacKintosh, Katy McFadden, Carolyn Mills, David Nechak, Mylan Rakich, Tamsie Ringler, Reed Rothschild, Kate Simmons, Mike Suri, David Thompson, Rick True, Julian Voss- Andreae and Roger Williams.
