Sculptor Dexter Benedict to Discuss The Lincklaen Statue <\/em><\/p>\n

The\u00a0Cazenovia\u00a0Public\u00a0Library\u00a0will host sculptor\u00a0Dexter Benedict in the Community Room on\u00a0Wednesday, July 18 at 7:00 p.m.\u00a0His presentation, \u201cLincklaen Sculpture: The Bronze Casting Process,\u201d\u00a0will focus on his latest commission and his artistic process.<\/p>\n

Dexter Benedict is the owner\/operator of the Fire Works Foundry and Sculpture Studio near Penn Yan in Yates County, New York. He received a B.A. in Art from Ottawa University, Kansas, and an M.F.A. in Sculpture from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. In 2010, Benedict retired from Keuka College, where he was honored with the title of Professor of Art, Emeritus.<\/p>\n

Benedict\u2019s work is primarily figurative in imagery. To create a piece, he works directly in clay to develop the form, and then, using the Lost Wax Process, casts the work in bronze at his foundry. He has completed a number of corporate and private commissions, ranging from small commemorative awards to monumental bronze portrait figures. Locally, he created\u00a0the Ben Franklin statue in Syracuse\u2019s Franklin Square, as well as the Jerry Wilson statue and The Stone Throwers statues on Tipperary Hill.<\/p>\n

Benedict is currently developing a bronze statue of\u00a0Cazenovia\u2019s founder, John Lincklaen, to be erected in Lakeland Park. The sculpture, \u201cLincklaen\u2019s Vision,\u201d will be installed in celebration of\u00a0Cazenovia\u2019s 225th\u00a0Anniversary.<\/p>\n

All events at the\u00a0Cazenovia\u00a0Public\u00a0Library\u00a0are free and open to the\u00a0public. For more information, call 315-655-9322 or visit\u00a0cazenoviapubliclibrary.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
