Glenn Zweygardt continues his long-standing relationship inside the Mississippi Delta with his installation of Bluestone Blues. A venerable, New York-based sculptor, he has gained world-wide recognition over his nearly six-decade career and a membership to the Berman Group, a cooperative of sculptors whose collective work spans virtually the entire spectrum of possibilities of “traditional” modernist sculpture. Zweygardt has seven pieces featured in the Mathews-Sanders Sculpture Garden Permanent Collection, and on this journey south brings Bluestone Blues. “Finding one’s place in a relationship with nature is the theme of my sculpture,” he explained. “While working with materials such as metal and stone, a relationship between nature and myself is formed. Further, I want to tell stories and comment on my collective life experience and my perception of a collective consciousness. Hopefully, these ideas and expressions will enter into human consciousness and the fourth dimension.”
