SMA Member Insider
The Springville Museum of Art quarterly newsletter Member Insider has a quote about the aquiaition of OpusTwentyTwo: Phoenix. You can see the full issue of Member insider at http://www.smofa.org/files/pages/90mmhm99.pdf.
“Dennis N. Duce’s sculpture entitled OpusTwentyTwo: Phoenix (2009, copper strips, 88” high) is a complete change of pace. The sculpture is composed of woven and colored strips of copper sheets. It is a donation from Dr. Antoine and Jean Anderson of St. George, Utah and expands the diversity of work in the Stewart Sculpture Garden.”
SMA Springville Museum of Art New Aquisition Opening

SMA Springville Museum of Art New Aquisition Opening Day

Close up of OpusTwentyTwo: Phoenix
OpusTwentyTwo: Phoenix is part of the New Acquisition Show at the SMA (Springville Museum of Art). We had a great opening reception today from 2-4. My piece was accepted into the perminent collection in Oct 2009 as part of the new Sculpture garden. Through the end of the show it will be hanging inside the museum along side a number of great artists. Along with the new acquisition show there are some great displays of art done by such notable artists as Susan Swartz titled “Natural Revelations”, Korry Bird and Glen Turner. Seeing that my first show was last May at HPH Design as part of the Brolly Stroll 2009 in Sugar House I can’t help but feel incredibly blessed to already be honored to be hanging in the SMA along side these great artists.
