James A. Michener Art Museum
Doylestown, United States
The Michener Art Museum commissioned the casting of the sculpture Together from the resin mold used to produce Selma Burke’s original 1975 bronze bas-relief, owned by Hill House Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The work, which depicts a male and female nude holding an infant between their bodies, focuses on family love and unity, a theme found in many of Burke’s works.
