Susan Smyly Memorial Fund

We all have dreams.

Susan's dream was to have her sculpture make a difference, to tell a story of human tragedy and human triumph, to excite and inspire, to portray the fragility of our world and the need to mend it.

Fortunately, Susan had the extraordinary talent and the single minded artistic energy that were always true to her brilliant and powerful vision. Perhaps some of her pieces were more controversial than commercial, but Susan’s unrelenting resistance to compromise has yielded a large body of more than 300 powerful and important sculptures.

Yes, Susan had a dream for her sculpture. It was not a dream for personal recognition, not a dream to be famous. It was all about her art and the influence her art could have.

And now it is time for all of us – friends, relatives, students, interns, patrons –- to join together to help make Susan's dream come true.

Much needs to be done and many people are signed on to help. Over the last few years more than a dozen of Susan’s faithful admirers have been collaborating to build and to expand the susansmyly.com website, to produce a documentary of Susan in action in her remarkable studio, and to publish a definitive art book of her treasures.

To bring these tributes to fruition, the immediate future requires our further collective action:

The collection as a whole must be preserved

The dozen or so works-in- progress must immediately be preserved

The collection must be presented to the public via documentary and publishing

The next stage calls for the display of Susan’s art in high profile places such as galleries, museums, and prominent homes, which we hope will lead to further recognition of this remarkable and singular artist.

The people resources are in place, but financial resources are required. Just visit the images at www.susansmyly.com and experience once again the power, beauty and message of her art. You will be motivated to participate in sharing Susan’s dream to have her sculpture make a difference.
