Edwards, Garth
- Description
-
An enameled steel piece based upon the theme of transportation. The view shown is of a pink car with a blue interior. A human, gender unknown, is driving, wearing a dark blue long sleeve shirt and a black beret. There is a Dalmatian-type of dog wearing a seatbelt in the backseat. The background is blue with a round, blue, pink, red, and yellow object in front of the human's face, just in front of the vehicle.
Most of Edwards' work takes a humorous and delighted look at life. Edwards works in many media- glass, enamel on steel, iron- and has produced many private and public commissions. He was a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship winner in 1981 (OAC documentation, 1990).
The Oregon Arts Commission has ten Regional Arts Councils that provide delivery of art services and information. The Council for this location is: Mid-Valley Arts. You may view their website at: http://www.oregonlink.com/arts/index.html
