Mercer Arboretum and Botanic Gardens will display "Art in the Garden," a display of found object sculptures by American industrial folk artist Andre Gandin, through Thursday, March 31, at 22306 Aldine Westfield Road, one mile north of FM 1960. Whimsical flowers and exotic birds, insects and other animals created from scrap metal can be found hiding in the gardens. Gandin sculpts each piece to its unique form and paints or polishes the metal to bring out individual characters. "To me, it is the defining moment when you see something that came out of the scrap heap heading for the living room," Gandin said. All of Gandin's pieces will be for sale, and a price list will be available in the visitor's center. Photos will be available upon request. Gandin's work may be viewed online at www.sunsetgallery.net. For additional information or for special assistance, call (281) 443-8731. Hyperlinks will work if this document is read Online
