'New Growth': Bent-wood sculptures by Susan Manspeizer Opens at Reeves-Reed Arboretum

Reeves-Reed Arboretum announces its first art exhibition of the 2016 season. Artist's Opening Reception takes place February 21, 2-4pm.

Westchester artist, Susan Manspeizer, with a career spanning three decades, has produced an exhibition, NEW GROWTH, celebrating nature’s life-affirming vitality and maturity, characterized by vibrant, deftly-formed bent-wood sculptures of color, beauty, form and grace. A gardener as well, Manspeizer “likes the process of living, of plants going from the bud of a flower to maturity and eventually decay. We are constantly growing and reinventing ourselves...leaving behind something in order to move forward in life.” This philosophy of rebirth or new growth is so in tune with life experienced in a garden and especially at the Arboretum.

NEW GROWTH: bent-wood sculptures by Susan Manspeizer, opens at the Wisner House Gallery on Sunday, February 21, with a public reception from 2-4 pm, and will run through May 8. All the works are for sale, and the artist will donate 30% of all purchases to Reeves-Reed Arboretum.

Reeves-Reed Arboretum is located at 165 Hobart Avenue, Summit, NJ 07901.
