Description
This piece depicts a strange man with a thick brow dressed in a white Oxford shirt with a pocket protector. His legs are cork-screwed around one another, and he has six arms that move in different directions and interact with the other smaller, peripheral figures that surround him. Claudia Cave; The Never Say No Man; U of O Science Complex Claudia Cave, a Salem painter, studied art at Western Oregon State University and University of Idaho and has participated in many regional exhibitions. Ms. Cave's mixed media paintings are carefully rendered excursions into the world of psychological archetypes. 'The Never Say No Man' resonates with symbols and tensions and his dilemma activates the composition. (Information obtained via OAC documentation.)

Note
This project included the construction of a complex of four major science buildings: the construction of a new Museum of Natural History and two smaller architecture studio buildings to replace dislocated facilities, and a remodel of a former science building for Architecture and Allied Arts, which lost about 15,000 net square feet of programmatic space to construction of the new science buildings. The project was completed between 1989-1991. An interactive campus map of the University of Oregon may be viewed at: http://map.uoregon.edu/ Streisinger Hall
