Title: Sculpture from the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery
Description: "The Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln houses one of America's finest collections of twentieth-century sculpture. In addition to the major art historical landmarks that reflect the achievements of more than a century of collecting by the Nebraska Art Association and the University of Nebraska, the gallery has recently added monumental sculptures that provide a more comprehensive representation of artists currently contributing to the medium. Some of the most intriguing and influential pieces in the collection are represented in this volume."

"All of the 90 pieces selected from more than 350 works in the collection are presented here in full color, each accompanied by a brief discussion of the artist and his or her work by leading scholars in the field as well as authorities on the collection. The essays examine the works of sculptors represented in the Sheldon's collection, including Barlach, Brancusi, Calder, Duchamp, Moore, and Rodin, and present a concise yet comprehensive overview of pertinent scholarship that will be of value to both students and experts in the field."--Jacket.
