of life. [The Sculptures] do
many things; they can
warm up ... a park or
public space and they
invite people to come into
that space, so that they
don't feel quite alone. They
also make good neighbors
— they don't make a lot of
noise.
Realism has the capacity to
reach everyone; there is no
age barrier, no culture
barrier. As the breadth of
communication expands,
so does the potency of a
particular work”.

Sharing the Headlines by Seward Johnson ©1991
Seward Johnson is most widely known for his sculptures depicting people engaged in every day activities. Johnson's desire to highlight the mundane in his Celebrating the Familiar sculpture series has brought a unique voice to the world of art in public spaces.
Following an early career as a painter, Seward Johnson turned his talents to the medium of sculpture. Since then, more than 450 of Johnson's life-size cast bronze figures have been featured in private collections and museums in the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia, as well as prominent places in the public realm such as Rockefeller Center, Pacific Place, Hong Kong, Les Halles in Paris and Via Condotti in Rome
