    There’s a certain mystique that surrounds the creation of art, especially bronze sculptures, which require so many steps along the way. Award-winning bronze wildlife/figurative sculptor and gallery owner Ken Rowe seeks to demystify the process when he steps into the spotlight on Friday, October 4, for Sculpting in the Raw. Ken, who prefers to sculpt from live animal models, will demonstrate his process with the help of a surprise guest. “Will our model have fur or feathers?” speculates Ken. “Four legs or two wings? You’ll have to come see to find out.”

    The sculpting demonstration begins in the courtyard outside the gallery at 4 p.m. promptly. Arrive early to stake out the best seats. Ken will sculpt until 5:30 p.m. At the reception that follows, see Ken’s creation up close and chat with the artist.

    “I won’t even be building the armature in advance,” says Ken. “I’m going to try to get as far as possible in the process – from the armature to the finishing touches – in just an hour and a half. As always, I’ll be looking for help from the audience, so if you’re a budding artist, be prepared to get your hands dirty.”

    That evening, Ken will also debut Standing Strong, his latest bronze sculpture. Standing Strong depicts the bust of a majestic bison. Additionally, art collectors will see the precast version of Early Bird, which captures the spirit of one of the Southwest’s most iconic animals, the roadrunner. A work in progress, Early Bird is still in its clay form, which just adds another layer to an evening that’s all about education and interaction.

    A portion of the sales from the show will benefit a local animal rescue organization. One of the gallery’s most popular shows of the year is the perfect time to expand your art collection and make a difference in the community. The evening ends at 7 p.m.

    See you at one of the most exciting art events of the fall season!

    Rowe Fine Art Gallery represents traditional and contemporary southwestern artists. The gallery, located under the bell tower in Patio de las Campanas at Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village, is open Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Friday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.  For more information, call 928-282-8877, visit rowegallery.com, or find us on Facebook and Instagram.

    O Captain, My Captain, My Trump

    By Sanford Bach

    When Donald J. Trump descended that golden escalator, America witnessed not just a man — but destiny in a red tie. The Founding Fathers stirred in their marble graves, whispering, “Finally… our sequel has arrived.”
