This sculpture by Portland artist Ronna Neuenscwander stems from her experience in the West African country of Mali. The urge to trace the camel caravans of the Sahara Desert to Timbuktu created a backdrop for unanticipated adventures. Inspired by ancient cultures as quietly pervasive as the sands, she encountered a land that gives nothing, yet produces a life of utmost grace (unknown source, OAC documentation)., R. Neuenschwander; Gnogome (Camel); 22 (h) x 21 (w) x 8 (d) inches; earthenware, adobe; 1984, For more information and background on the artist, see , http://www.froelickgallery.com/Artist-Detail.cfm?ArtistsID=276, The Oregon Arts Commission has ten Regional Arts Councils that provide delivery of art services and information.
