NSG Fellow Jane DeDecker
|
'Part of Jane's artistic genius is her ability to select a moment with which all of us can relate to in our lives. These recognizable moments skip over generations, each generation finding recognition with it. The scene is timeless in the human experience and each takes us to that moment causing us to reflect and evaluate the importance of love, relationship and achievement.
The textures of DeDecker's work bespeak her passion, integrity and honesty. Her practiced and studied craftsmanship coupled with her dedicated respect for others achieves the balance, which makes a hard metal come alive with spirit and soul. This is why her collectors never tire of her work. These are the reasons her peers recognize her as being at the forefront of this century's contemporary sculptors.' - John Kinkade, Executive Director of the National Sculptors' Guild

Learn more about this National Sculptors' Guild exclusive offering of Jane DeDecker's latest historic sculpture, celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the 19th Amendment.
The 19th Amendment Centennial Tribute sculpture "Stand" depicts many of the women who helped make the amendment possible. The bronze is available as soon as the 2020 election day. Ideal for public placement in civic plazas, or city halls. We hope to see one in every state. We've designed an elegant bronze and stone base that is pre-engineered for safe and easy installation without a footing or special equipment. The images are shown in clay as we are currently taking pre-cast orders. In a particularly important year to get the vote out - this sculpture will reinvigorate the patriotic spirit, reminding us of the many individuals before us, who fought so hard for this right. Stand for freedom; stand for equality; stand for liberty; stand for human rights; stand for a voice; stand for the future; stand for women's right to vote! |
"My work is a cumulative process made of my life experiences & my desire to sculpt the human form. Each piece tells a story of how it was created -with every stroke supporting the narrative."
