Art About Town: Sacramento. Arpeggio IV By Bruce Beasley

"In Heaven it's always autumn."

~John Donne

Alan and I went to lovely Sacramento yesterday, to enjoy the autumn sun, the leaves which are just beginning to turn, and the amazing amount of art work that can be found all over the city! I love Sacramento for so many reasons, but the art probably tops the list! From huge sculptures like this one, to the colorfully painted electrical boxes that dot the town, art is everywhere! This particular piece sits outside the Crocker Art Museum, along with several other sculptures, but rather than show all of them, I thought it would be nice to spread them out over several upcoming posts. For now, concentrate on that late afternoon sun, and this absolutely fabulous sculpture, Arpeggio IV, by artist, Bruce Beasley! And know, there will be plenty more, Art About Town, posts to come!

Art About Town: Berkeley... "Rondo"

"Art is not what you see, but what you make others see."

~Edgar Degas

This is the newest piece of public art in Berkeley. The title of the piece is, Rondo, by artist, Bruce Beasley. Rondo is actually series of sculptures that are sprinkled here and there around the campus. I will have to go back at some point and photograph all of them. The series will only be on display through August of this year, so I have a feeling that this might be a great way to spend a warm sunny day in June, perhaps sometime around my birthday! The Cal Berkeley campus is beautiful, and has many different pieces of art that I will be able to add to my collection of public art photos. It makes me smile just thinking about it!
