Allan Houser at the Desert Botanical Garden
Here's a sample of Allan Houser's work, now on display at the Desert Botanical Garden, through August 2010. Houser (b. 1914, d. 1994) was an Apache sculpture considered by many to be the father of American Indian sculpture. I'm not sure why I like this particular piece...maybe because it reminds me of a pregnant woman.
I'm a freelance writer in the Phoenix area. I'll write about almost anything, but travel is my passion. I love writing about Arizona, in particular, and sharing our wonderful state with others. Check out my book, Great Escapes Arizona, available at Barnes & Noble and on Amazon.com.
How neat! My sister has this sculpture posted today, (Wednesday) only in the day light. (Phoenix Daily Photo)
