Devil Whirls - Alice Aycock Sculpture installation at the McNay Museum.

Sep 27

Written By Kim

I am honored to have worked with the McNay Museum in San Antonio, TX to commission a monumental Alice Aycock Sculpture, Devil Whirls. Through the generosity of the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts, this sculpture is now part of the permanent collection of the McNay Museum.
