Kabuki Dancer

Kabuki Dancer was purchased in 1984 from Chicago-based sculptor Jerry Peart, creator of over 35 large scale public art commissions throughout the US and internationally. The sculpture is rendered in his trademark fluid form with bold, distinctive color blocking that references the traditional art of Japanese Kabuki theater and dance. The sculpture was featured prominently in the 1984 Citywide Contemporary Sculpture Exhibition held by The Arts Commission and The Toledo Museum of Art, having been newly purchased to serve as the centerpiece for Downtown Toledo's Levis Square Park at the time of the exhibition.
