Hammer and Tongs: Journal of an Artist and Sculptor

This is a rare look inside the art world and art making by an internationally recognized sculptor. Murray Dewart has built large public sculptures around the world over the course of 50 years. He is also a fine writer. Poignant, literate, spiritual, and poetic, this memoir narrates the inside dramas and politics of the art world, the galleries, collectors, and public commissions. Dewart shares his experience of the triumphs and the heartbreak. Compiled from his daily journals, the narrative is spirited and infectious, sharp with revealing details and humor, full of personal musings and colorful, sometimes bawdy anecdotes. There is a soulful dimension to this story, as Dewart asks the big questions about life and purpose. He is both an artist and a family man, weaving together the personal and the professional with an authentic voice from inside the discipline of art.
