"Dance has been a major focus of my work and it goes through various metamorphisis of styles. For some time now I've been reducing the human form into the simplest recognizable works to convey the joy and celebration of life through dancing themes. The negative spaces the figures create and their harmony with each other are an important part of the total form. The simplicity of a calligraphic brushstroke executed three-dimensionally in space, is for me, the Haiku poetry of sculpture. (Some of the sculptures are even named Haiku Dancers) Each work is one of a kind using variations of the same basic parts and sizes which vary from table top size pieces to sculptures thirty feet tall." Jerry Daniel's career spans three decades. Born in the rural Southwest, he received degrees in art and sculpture and has exhibited in the United States and in Europe. His work was selected by the U.S. Ambassador to Austria for display on the embassy estate in Vienna. Jerry has earned outstanding acheivements in the art education and has served two years on the Board of Directors and two terms as President of the Texas Sculpture Association (TSA).
