"Spirits
of the Land"
| Contemporary
abstract figures in stone, from marble to sandstone to granite, has been Madeline
Wiener’s main focus since studying at The New York School of Visual
Arts from 1968-1974. A trip to
Italy and her many days of sketching sculptures at the
Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in
New York began Madeline’s journey in stone. Founder/director of The Marble Institute
of Colorado, Madeline has remained intent on finding new and
expressive ways
to create her abstract figurative stone sculptures. Working
trips to far-away places like Scotland and India have provided the
opportunity to create site-specific, monumental public
installations and fulfill Madeline's dream of using
her art to foster cultural exchange. The creation of
the Marble Institute of Colorado's MARBLE/marble
Symposium has provided a venue for
cultural exchanges between artists from different countries
and varying disciplines.
