Madeline Wiener\u2019s public art stands across the globe, and June 17 the sculptor will speak at Colorado Mountain College about her craft.<\/p>\n

The artist \u2014 who lives in Denver and carves in Marble \u2014 has been tasked with creating a sculpture for the North Landing site along Sixth Street where the former Grand Avenue Bridge once touched down.<\/p>\n

Known widely for her series of work called \u201cBench People,\u201d Wiener\u2019s informal CMC discussion begins at 6:30 p.m. Monday in CMC\u2019s Glenwood Center at 1402 Blake Ave. The event, which will conclude at 8 p.m., is free and open to the public.<\/p>\n

Wiener studied at the New York School of Visual Arts, and her resume to date includes sculptures as near as \u201cFlower Girl\u201d in the Denver Botanic Gardens, which was carved from Colorado Yule Marble, to works found abroad in Scotland and India.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am a stone carver for many reasons. I love the physical and mental challenge of this medium. I am always seeking the most powerful and sensual form and creating the perfect tactile surface for each piece,\u201d Wiener stated on her website madelinewiener.com.<\/p>\n

\u201cI enjoy bringing the viewer into the sculpture itself, either by relating through personal emotions or by literally providing an opportunity to climb or sit on\/in the form. Carving stone and exploring its potential is what gives me energy.\u201d<\/p>\n
