- Museum of Art Exhibit: Bio-Permutation: Sculptures by David Isenhour
- Isenhour is a professor of art at the University of Central Florida who earned his master of fine arts degree from Michigan State University. Isenhour sculpts his compositions from polyiso foam and polyester resin, coats the forms with automotive paint, and finishes with layers of high-gloss urethane, creating works that initially strike a humorous note, but convey an underlying bizarre and ominous quality.
More information is available on the museum Website ([ http://www.umma.umaine.edu/index.html ]http://www.umma.umaine.edu/index.html) or by calling(207) 561-3350. It is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. The Bangor Daily News is the media sponsor of the winter exhibit.
