Martin Spei's sculptures capture complex emotions about work


I stopped in at the Art Center at Fuller Lodge to see the Sculptural Ideas exhibit. Martin Spei's bronze sculpture "Dagda III" was what stood out. It's a sculpture of a bald man with bare feet clutching a briefcase, as if it's going to fly away, or someone is threatening it. His work. But the man is so physical, he almost doesn't look like the type to be carrying a briefcase. Like he should be doing something else entirely. He's not suited to be wearing a suit. It was really interesting.
