Summary
"George Segal (1924-2000) is widely recognized as one of the great American sculptors of the twentieth century. He used plaster, found objects, and an innovative working process to document the life and environment around him. Born and raised in New York City, Segal spent his entire working life in New Jersey, where he used an old chicken coop as his studio. Throughout his adult life, he would venture into New York - fascinated by the hidden nooks of the city - where he transformed his experiences into works of art with universal appeal. George Segal: Street Scenes, organized by the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, examines the artist's love affair with the city and its people."--Jacket.
