"Painted with Words is a compelling look at Vincent van Gogh's correspondence to his young colleague Émile Bernard between 1887 and 1889. Van Gogh's words and sketches reveal his thoughts about art and life and communicate his groundbreaking work in Arles to his fellow painter."

"Giants is a sculpture of two men, each approximately eight feet tall. These figures, dressed in sweatshirts and carrying backpacks, are inspired by the artist’s memory of circuses from his childhood, when human oddities were still put on display. Remarkably lifelike, they are made of painted polyurethane, natural hair, and meticulously produced over-sized clothing."
