‘Over and over until you get it right’
PDF
January 20, 2009, Volume 55, No. 18

Furhman

Sculptor and teacher James Fuhrman, C’65, coxswain 1962-65, created an artist’s print (above) as a tribute in honor of legendary rowing coach Joe Burk W’34 Hon’88, based on a conversation that he had with the late coach in 2007. The prints are giclee, digital drawings 8.5 ”x 17” printed on Arches textured watercolor paper. Partial proceeds will be donated to the Joe Burk Rowing Fund.

“In April 2007, I sat with Joe and asked him, ‘What did you take away from all those years of rowing, and coaching?’ He said, ‘The idea of doing something over and over until you get it right.’

This print is part of the Contemplative Spaces, Works on Paper exhibition at the Burrison Gallery, University Club, now through February 20.
