post something youll buy it office building andeither insulted it joked stout it or ignored it in the view of a claremont artist that piece of sculpture not only is a relatively good piece of work but the village of stouffville could do with a lot more pieces of art there should be 10 pieces in there said ed falkenberg of con cession 8 mr falkenberg is in a position to comment on sculptures in

ontario college of art two years before his surroundings near claremont provided the inspiration for a series of 25 pieces built in 1972 to raise money for people or planes the pieces made with formed plywood and painted steel were called claremonthills his house is another expression of his view that art architecture and design should all help to create human spaces with a human per spective having classic art work in a working en vironment for instance can make workers more aware of life mr falkenberg said he cites the case of a dutch factory where art work was installed next to machines on walls and inside lavatories everywhere the workers frequented later interviews indicated that the workers interests broadened as they lived with the art according to mr falkenberg their reading
