Two New Sculptures Installed at Laurelwood Arboretum


‘Robber’s Roost’ is one of two new installations in
A Sculpture Trail at Laurelwood Arboretum, 725 Pines Lake Road in Wayne. This brings the total to 10 out of the 15 pieces that will be included in the project. The 9-foot-tall sculpture by Jon Krawczyk was fabricated from polished steel and enamel paint. The artist is known for transforming sheets of metal into large-scale sculptures. He cuts, pounds, and welds the sheets to fashion smooth, monolithic forms that look as though they were carved by a Samurai slicing clay.
Krawczyk lives in Malibu, California. After graduating from Connecticut College, he traveled throughout Europe to study fine art before moving to the American west in the 1990s. Early in his career, he apprenticed with a number of renowned American metal sculptors. Over the last 20 years, Krawczyk has parlayed these life experiences into his characteristic aesthetic approach and studio practice.  ....

Described by one former reporter as running The Record’s newsroom with “an iron fist and a velvet glove,” Comstock oversaw the newspaper in the pre-internet age when print was still king. His tenure at the helm of the paper covered everything from the Iran hostage crisis to President Ronald Reagan being shot to the Challenger space shuttle explosion and the Iran-Contra scandal of the late 1980s. ....
