The corn palace in Mitchell, S.D., is decorated with designs made of corn. Lawrence artist Adam Rohe was involved in the creation of the original version of the Corn Palace, which was built in 1892 and was replaced in the 20th century with the current building.
One of Lawrence’s most famous artists is Stan Herd. Originally born in Protection, he’s done crop and earthwork art around the world, and his ingenious use of nature has delighted viewers.
It has always seemed appropriate to me that he is following in the footsteps of Adam Rohe, an artist who worked during the 19th and early 20th centuries and was also from Lawrence.
