In the fall of 2014, the City of Durango’s Public Art Commission (PAC) contracted with DHM Design
to update the Animas River Greenway Art Master Plan to extend the scope of public artworks
throughout the entire City. This document maps all current City-owned public art pieces, as well as the
locations of artworks currently on-loan. Consultation with the PAC and City of Durango provided basis
for potential locations for new public art, whereby providing direction to the PAC when budgeting
for future projects. Coordination with the City’s overall improvement projects will be critical. Many of
the public art locations are proposed in City parks, trailheads and along the Animas River Trail. Final
placement of the artwork will be coordinated in advance with the Parks and Recreation Department
upon acceptance of the proposed art by the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. The future art
locations will continue to develop as the City evolves.

Description
The Moments Project is conceptual artwork
utilizing historic photographs placed in the
approximate location where they were
originally snapped. It employs the “canvas”
of interpretive signage as a user-activated
mechanism of engagement.
This insertion of the past into everyday life
enables viewers to make an immediate, realtime comparison, which in turn allows the weight
of years falling between the frozen moment of
the photograph and the present instant to be
keenly felt...a gentle bump against the most
powerful of nature’s forces—time.
The project’s goals also include offering
Durangoans
insights
into
their
history.
Highlighting past relationships with the land
and it’s people—how communities were born
and died, how resources were utilized wisely or
foolishly; how important buildings and sites have
been preserved or destroyed—raises questions
about growth. My hope is that such queries
will positively inform decision-making about
Durango’s future.

In summer of 2009, about six years after Fort Lewis College art professor emeritus,
Mick Reber installed "Parade Formation" in Santa Rita Park, he donated a second
large-scale piece to the City. "The Guardian," which resides at the entrance of
Memorial Park, is a 12-foot high core ten steel sculpture.

"My Children" is an example of Houser's interest in the maternal theme, one he
continued to explore throughout his creative life. Allan Houser received many
honors during his illustrious 55-year career as an artist and teacher. Celebrating his
Native American heritage, he created over 1,000 sculptures in various media and
displayed his work in over 50 solo exhibitions. Houser's art is held in private and
public collections worldwide. In 1992, he was the first Native American to receive
the National Medal for the Arts. Houser died in 1994.

"Turbo Books" is inspired by a spiral galaxy, both in form and concept. The spiral
symbolizes the opening of the mind that is experienced through reading. Acutal
books make up the arms of the galaxy form. Carl Stransky is a self-taught sculptor
living in Durango, Colorado. His interest in science and the natural world inspires him
to create sculptures of animals and physical phenomenon.

"Card Catalog" pays homage to libraries, past and present. While referencing the
card catalog as an organizer of information, the placement of the 'drawers' in the
stairwell organizes space. This piece is entwined with the building, physically and
conceptually. Jay Dougan received his Master of Fine Arts degree from Notre
Dame University. He has created numerous temporary outdoor installations.
Dougan is currently an assistant professor of art at Fort Lewis College in Durango,
Colorado.

"Chamberlain of Letters," "Minister of Words," and "Book Warden" are three life-size
figurative bronze sculptures belonging to the 'Guardian' series. Envisioned as
protectors of words and ideas, their highly-polished surfaces are impressed with
fragments of text and embellishments from old books. Melissa Zink trained at
numerous art schools before beginning her prolific and well-received career. Over
the last 35 years, she has worked in various media, yet her subject has remained
rooted in storytelling and a love of language. Her paintings, collages, and
sculptures are widely shown and collected. In 2001, she received the New Mexico
Governor's Award for Excellence and Achievement in the Arts. Zink resides in Taos,
New Mexico.

"Life Wall" is comprised of 40 bronze sculptures of people who have made significant
contributions to American society as well as those whose faces reveal a great depth
of character and human dignity. Portraying the flow of life and diversity of mankind,
"Life Wall" is an interactive sculpture to be experienced and enjoyed by the sighted
as well as the visually impaired. Each "life cast" sculpture was created using a mold
taken directly from the person's body. The molds were then filled with molten bronze
to produce the final sculpture. Created during the 1980s, "Life Wall" toured
American museums from 1990 to 2000.

provides the story-teller a place to sit. Its cheerful design is, in the artist’s own words,
“attention-getting, though not so filled with a story of its own it detracts from what is
being read by the sitter.” Bright colorful leaves and birds are fastened at a height
children may see, but not reach. The birds are all Durango natives - a barn swallow,
a downy woodpecker, an American goldfinch and a redwing blackbird. Rachel
Slick studied art in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and has won numerous public art
commissions in the U.S. She was the recipient of a Robert Rauschenberg Grant in
2003 and was a featured artist on PBS Arts TV in 2004. Slick resides in Tucson, Arizona.

"Reach" is a sculpture that honors nature lover and humanitarian Tom Grams, a local
dentist who was killed in Afghanistan in 2010 while he was there to provide dental
care in a remote mountain valley. A creation of Miki Harder and Rich Stewart, the
sculpture features birds flying toward the sky, and the vertical steel pieces spiral up,
representing a prayer wheel, mountains, canyons, and rivers. The piece was
donated to the City by friends and family of Dr. Gram and sits in the Durango
Botanical Society's demonstration garden along the Animas River Trail.

Endurance
Joshua Wiener
Steel
Durango maintains a strong recreational culture, home to thousands of amateur
and professional cyclists, which made it a perfect host as the starting point to the
2012 USA Pro Cycling Challenge. In celebration of the event, the Bank of Colorado
donated the funding to commission a sculpture to reside within the Florida Road
roundabout, resulting in Joshua Wiener’s spirited piece, "Endurance." Wiener, a
former Durango resident, created a piece that is kinetic, without moving parts and
captures image of five racing cyclists nearing a finish line. Joshua was born into a
stone sculpting community, as his mother founded the Marble Institute of Colorado.
He also studied at Fort Lewis College, and his dedication to sculpting earned him an
apprenticeship in Japan with Kazutaka Uchida. Joshua is an instructor at the Art
Students League in Denver, Colorado and has taught workshops at the Denver Art
Museum and The Colorado Academy.

As Durango’s public art portfolio grew in size and value, so too did the appreciation
of the City’s stewardship of the collection. In late 2012, recently-settled Durango
residents Ken and Shell MacKenzie bequeathed Tom Waldron’s modernist weldedsheet steel sculpture "Swirl" to the City. Installed overlooking the Animas River next to
the walking bridge in Rotary Park, "Swirl" holds an elegant curvature and minimalist
design that passerbys often mistaken for something organic, like a boulder. Waldron
is an established sculptor based in Corrales, New Mexico, and although Swirl was
created in 1989 it speaks to the same abstract design of his main body of
work—monumental, oddly understated and amorphous in structure. All that would
be expected of a modern sculpture and a welcomed addition to the City’s
collection.

Durango’s "Trout Wall" was installed in 2007, thanks to the Arts Collaborative, a group
of local artists and arts educators, along with volunteer efforts of Durango middle
schools and high school students from Ignacio, Bayfield and Durango. The Arts
Collaborative is comprised of five artisans: Keith Walzak, Kelly Hurford, Mary Anne
Griffin, Sandy Bielenberg and Chris Loftus, who worked with the youth to fabricate
and assemble an ambitious 70-foot long by 10-foot tall steel and mosaic tile mural.
The steel trout frames were made entirely from reclaimed steel, and the piece serves
to celebrate the Animas River and the trout native to many waterways of this region.

Patsy Davis
Bronze
Mancos artist, Patsy Davis, donated her cast bronze "Semper Fi" to the city of
Durango in 2013, and it immediately found a perfect home in front of the Durango
Police Department on East 2nd Avenue. Davis recalls of her inspiration for the largerthan-life sculpture of a German shepherd eagerly poised atop would-be steel
girders: “I was listening to a piece on NPR shortly after 9/11 about how we employ
animals, and I was impressed by how many dogs were at the towers,” Davis said of
her inspiration. “I immediately wanted to do a tribute sculpture – not a sad thing, not
a political piece; a tribute. “I’ve been making sculpture for my whole life, and I’ve
never made a piece that moved so many people,” she said. In 2005, prior to finding
a home in Durango’s permanent collection, Semper Fi was part of a 10-museum
touring exhibit called “Paws & Reflect: The Art of Canines” and later was on-loan to
a New Jersey based foundation. Davis sculpts almost entirely from live models, and
is an avid lover of dogs herself, having raised many breeds and spending countless
hours studying both their anatomy and behavior.

U.S. history. Greenblatt is known in the community for another important public art
effort, the Dumpster Beatification Project, which has reimagined over 30 metal
refuse bins around the city. Aided by the help of at-risk youth, the Dumpster Project
serves to mentor the next generation of public artists, all the while creating visually

The year 2007 marked the 125th year of the City of Durango, and to commemorate
the commissioned a public artwork by local artist Bryan Saren. The steel and copper
sculpture contains 125 different pieces, one for every year the City has been
incorporated. The piece bears steel likenesses of Perins Peak and Smelter Mountain
framed by copper sections of river. A large, spoked wheel sits above and below the
mountains and river. Saran was selected from a juried Call to Artists, presenting a
final concept to a panel of community members, and the Public Art Commission. To
help fund the project, the City sold commemorative 125th anniversary mason jars.
Local microbreweries Steamworks, Carver’s and Ska Brewing Co. all helped sell the
mason jars and brewed the special Founders’ Lager to fill them. The sculpture is
located at the entrance of the Durango City Hall on East 2nd Avenue.

Casting a playful but watchful eye over East 2nd Avenue, Elizabeth MacQueen's
"Puck" is a 9-foot tall bronze sculpture of "that merry wanderer of the night" in William
Shakespeare's comedic play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream." Appropriately situated
adjacent to the Durango Arts Center, Puck is often adorned with scarves, hats, leg
warmers and other props throughout the year by anonymous admirers. The
sculpture stands on a rotating base, enabling passersby to engage the mischievous
character in movement, twisting him to face different directions. The life-like nature
of the sculpture was another piece that was donated by part-time resident and art
patron, Phyllis Alden in 2011 after eleven years on loan to the city of Durango.
Crafted in 1984 by MacQueen, Puck migrated to Durango in February 2000 at
Alden's behest.

"Living Wind" was installed and dedicated in summer of 2014 as the 27th artwork of

movement akin to the purpose of the Transit Center.

Complimenting Puck's dance on East 2nd Avenue, this second bronze sculpture by
renowned American artist, Elizabeth MacQueen, titled "Mudra" was also donated to
the City by art patron Phyllis Alden. A former ballet teacher and dancer,
MacQueen began working as a full-time sculptor in 1970 and chose models from
the community of dance in each of the eight countries in which she resided,
including Paris, France and Pietrasanta, Italy. She gained expertise in the technical
aspects of producing cast bronze sculpture, modeling several internationally-known
dancers. The 900 lb "Mudra" was first executed in Brussels in 1984 while working with
the Ballet du XXieme Siecle, modeling the figure after internationally-renowned
Argentinian ballet performer, Jorge Donn, who was posed in mid-leap. Durango is
fortunate to hold MacQueen's two signature pieces, "Puck" and "Mudra" within its
collection.
Joyce Parkerson Bronze
Situated in one of Durango's most frequented destinations--Durango and Silverton
Narrow Gauge Railroad Train Depot--"Whinney and Friends" is beloved by tourists
and locals alike. A life-size bronze trio of ponies by former Durango resident, Joyce
Parkerson (1947-2002), "Whinney and Friends" was created in 1992. The sculpture
was officially donated to the city in 2011 after being on loan for several years due to
the generosity of part-time resident and enthusiastic art patron, Phyllis Alden.
Parkerson was an established sculptor who began winning art awards at age 11
and later attended the American Academy of Art and the Art Institute of Chicago
to hone her craft, ultimately specializing in animals and primarily equine portraits.
Like many of her works, "Whinney and Friends" invites human interaction on a daily
basis as children often climb atop the ponies after a day on the train. All this would
probably be just fine with Parkerson. "To me," she once remarked, "sculpture is made
to be touched."
Perhaps the most controversial and publically revered piece in the City's art
collection in recent past, the "Arc of History", by artist Tom Holmes, is the result of a
capital project commissioned in conjunction with the redesign of a major traffic
intersection of US highways 160 & 550. Chosen from a competitive, formal Call to
Artists that brought forth dozens of proposals from local and national contenders,
the piece initially generated significant public discourse upon installation in 2014
with multiple newspaper articles and even a consideration by National Public
Radio. The piece gained further attention when an anonymous artist crafted and
placed a dinosaur head at one end of the rock-based construction, playing into the
various public interpretations of what the piece represented. The dinosaur head
was later auctioned off for arts education programs, and today the "Arc" continues
to receive occasional decorations.

Crafted by sculptor, Clyde Doney, "Double-Jack" is a spectacular life-size figurative
bronze, brick and mortar piece that is one of the oldest in the city's collection,
procured in August 1998. The sculpture celebrates Durango's history of mining. Two
men constituted a Double-Jack team: one turned the steel [bit] while the other
pounded it. The holes they drilled were filled with blasting powder and fired to break
up the rock. They used a set of steel bits, each piece progressively longer and
narrower, and an eight pound hammer for this wearying work. Eventually replaced
by machine drills, the skilled Double-Jackers took their trade to timed drilling
contests, where they competed for coveted championships. Double-Jack is
located in Santa Rita Park and is dedicated in memory of Boris Uskert, whose life was
lost in an airplane accident on January 19, 1988 while enroute to Durango to
participate in the design of this monument. Clyde Doney settled in Durango with his
wife Margaret Pauline Doney (1951-2014) in 1970 and established a family business,
Doney Sculpture Studio and Foundry, which they operated for 30 years.

Parade Formation
Mick Reber

Installed in August 2003, "Parade Formation" is a 30-by-10-foot steel sculpture by
former Fort Lewis College (FLC) art professor Mick Reber. The sculpture was a
generous donation to the city of Durango on behalf of Reber, whose career at FLC
spanned 30 years. "Parade Formation" is a two- and three-dimensional abstract
depicting three horse riders meant to blend old west and contemporary western
images. The artist's remarks on the concept and creative progression: “A couple of
years ago I began a series of drawings dealing with imagery relating to the horse
and rider. As the drawings progressed, the idea of ceremony began to take over,
with horse and rider in a kind of parade formation,” he said. “My purpose soon
became a search to secure a series of stylized drawings which would capture the
spirit of that feeling in sculptural form. I was far more interested in a spiritual
connection of past and present than a literal one, evoking a kind of symbolic sense
of honor to the way horse and rider have been used in ceremonies throughout the
history of Durango as well as other areas of the world.” (Excerpt from Durango
Telegraph, Missy Votel. August 28, 2003).

Part of the City's commitment to funding art at public buildings, "Interdependence"

community's interdependence with our pubilc services. The piece is composed of
four curved sides made of patinated steel. The core of the piece is made of copperplated perforated metal - allowing one to see through the center, as well as
allowing air flow. The piece resembles a flame in its outer structure, reminding one
of an "eternal flame" - the constant support the police department provides. A
former Durango resident, Preston Parrott is a primarily self-taught metal sculpture
who currently lives in Texas.
