Creative Minds Lecture
C. Schoenknecht & W. Paul Sculpture Lecture and Meijer Gardens Humanities Lecture
Tuesday, October 20, 7pm
Speakers: Beverly Pepper and Jorie Graham
Renowned sculptor Beverly Pepper and her daughter, celebrated poet Jorie Graham, will discuss their works as part of the Meijer Gardens lecture series and the dedication of Pepper’s new sculpture, "The Galileo Wedge." The 35-foot tall sculpture will be installed in The Groves section of the Sculpture Park. The abstract work comes to a very narrow point where it meets the ground, creating a sense of tension between the spike and the ground itself. Similarly, in her poetry Graham writes about the tension between nature and mankind.
