Second Kent Ullberg Sculpture Dedicated at Corpus Christi's Ullberg Park; Windborne II Serves as a Memorial to Long-Time Friend

Corpus Christi, Texas (PRWEB) April 6, 2005 -– A second Kent Ullberg sculpture has been installed and dedicated at Corpus Christi's Ullberg Park, at 14125 Jackfish Avenue, Corpus Christi, Texas. Ullberg's "Windborne II," a bronze depicting two eagles in flight, was installed as a memorial to the artist's long-time friend and neighbor, Joseph C. Ruszczyk, who passed away September 19, 2005.

"Joseph was a good friend and neighbor, and typical of the type of people that make life in Corpus Christi so special," notes Ullberg. Ruszczyk was retired a retired engineer, and worked at Bethlehem Steel before he moved with his wife to Corpus Christi. There, he worked at Naval Air Station - Corpus Christi.

Ullberg, who maintains studios in Loveland, Colorado and Corpus Christi, Texas, was honored by the City of Corpus Christi Parks & Recreation Department in March of 2005 when the park was re-named "Ullberg Park." The event also marked the unveiling of Ullberg's bronze, "The Journey's End," depicting two endangered Kemp's ridley sea turtles returning to the beach where they were born to mate and lay eggs. The park and sculpture are intended to help educate the public about the struggling species.

About Kent Ullberg
A native of Sweden, Kent Ullberg is recognized as one of the world’s foremost wildlife sculptors. While he has done hundreds of works on a small scale, he is perhaps best known for the monumental works he has executed for museums and municipalities from Omaha, Nebraska to Cape Town, South Africa. His Fort Lauderdale, Florida and Omaha, Nebraska installations are the largest wildlife bronze compositions ever done, spanning several city blocks. Regardless of scale, he imbues all of his subjects with unparalleled vitality.

Ullberg is a member of a number of important art organizations that have honored him with prestigious awards. These include, in New York City, Allied Artists of America, National Academy, National Arts Club, National Sculpture Society and the Society of Animal Artists. In 1990, his peers elected him a full academician of the National Academy, the first wildlife artist since John James Audubon to receive one of the greatest tributes in American Art. His memberships and awards outside New York include the American Society of Marine Artists, Ambler, Pennsylvania; and the National Academy of Western Art, Oklahoma City, which awarded him the Prix de West Award in 1998, the foremost award in western art. He is a major supporter of many wildlife conservation efforts.

Ullberg’s work can be found in major museums and corporate headquarters around the globe, including the National Museum of Natural History in Stockholm, Sweden; the National Gallery in Botswana, Africa; National Geographic Society, Washington, D.C.; Exhibition Hall, Beijing, China; the Guildhall in London, and many more. His pieces can also be found in the private collections of world leaders and celebrities, including H.R.H. Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, Jack Nicholson and Robert Wagner. He maintains studios in Loveland, Colorado and Corpus Christi, Texas. For more information, call (970) 667-7809 or (361) 851-1600 or visit www.kentullberg.net.
