Andy- "Pete Penguin" was delivered to our office several days ago and we have made a wonderful home for him in our conference room. Many oohs and aahs can be heard from visitors. Thank you very much for your creativity, time and gift to the University - it will be treasured for years. Shannon

Dear Andrew Conti, We have seen , and been impressed with your work. We would like to invite you to become a part of INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ARTISTS (ISA). If you agree with THE ARTISTS' STATEMENT and would like to participate in ISA, please join the society. It is founded by artists and for artists. All together we will develop our society throughout the world. We are artists living in different countries, who have met at the Florence Biennale 2003. Artists are aware of the great importance of Art in the contemporary world, more keenly than people from the governmental or any financial institutions. We are responsible for the destiny of Art, therefore we have no right to be passive. The prestige of Art must be restored, Art must be recognised as an important part of life and needs to relate widely to people. To achieve these goals we have founded INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ARTISTS (ISA). ISA is non-profit cultural organization registered in Sweden. There are no registration, membership or any other fees. Your accord will make you a member of ISA.

Thank you for donating your time last Monday to give a presentation to my group of Phoenix Art Museum dosents. Your step-by-step presentation clarified the role of the lost wax process in the creation of cast metal sculpture. It cleared the confusion most of us had as a result of a recent foundary visit where we were shown only the last few steps of the process, and we enjoyed the hands-on experience with your beautiful pieces. Thank you from all of us. Phoenix Art Museum Dosents, Class of 2001

Hello Contis, how exciting to think I knew some famous artists "way back when" -- glad to see such wonderful work and I would love to see it in person if we ever get out to Scottsdale. If my dad hasn't already told you, I live in Durham with my wife Elaine and two daughters, Hannah (10) and Alicia (6). Cheers, David

Don't know if you actually read these things or not but I do think of you often Sue, so I will give this a shot. It's good to finally know you are well and thriving. To see you looking so young and vibrant helps puts to rest a giant and painful question mark that I had about you. I guess it's stupid to keep trying to reconnect, but I loved you too well to ignore this opportunity. Obviously I've never given up hope that I would hear from you...

We are a small gallery in Sedona and I am currently seeking new artists. I found you on the web and I am very interested in carrying your work. Would you be interested in showing in Sedona if you are not already? Have a look at our website at jordanroadgallery.com. It shows an example of the type of art we have, although everything we have is not listed there. I have several new artists who will soon be added. Let me know what you would like to do. I will appreciate it! Sincerely, Lee Ann McKay, 928-282-5690, Manager/Director

Wonderful work, folks. I was raised in the Phoenix area and came back east to live in Upstate NY. I am a ceramic sculptor using woodfire, my daughter is a graphic artist. We just recently visited Scottsdale and saw the gallery. Very, Very impressive work. Thanks so much for sharing. Good luck.

Like your work. Saw a page on one of your sculptures while messing around with the computer to avoid doing any useful work. Found this when searching USS Toledo. I was in T division until 8/51 which was probably before you came on board since I don't remember you, and my memory is of course perfect. If you knew Dick Schuff he is, or was, living in Phoenix. Looking forward to seeing your work based on the pentode.

Hi Sue & Andy! Tom Bast steered me to this page. It's great to see what paths your art has taken (I love it). I'm back in Ossining for the past 4 years (after years in the City), have a wife (Janice, graphicdesigner) and son (Collin, 6, budding creative genius ofsome sort or other), and working as a computer tech forRusty Murray (!) & his wife Abby (their son Max is Collin's best friend). We have an office where Goldie's used to be,so I' get to be close to home and go into the city a lot. Anyway, in my extremely limited free time I write music, sculpt a little (I'll send you a photo image), study philosophy, religion, and occultism (I'm not a religious fanatic anymore, if I ever was). This is probably more information than you would ever want from me, but I'm glad to see you (artistically at least) thriving, and always think of you (Sue) and your family (that would include you, Andy) fondly. Drop me an email if you're so inclined.

Hi Sue and Andy. My name is Paul Suarez. I am the artist who created and installed the first life-size bronze monument in the United States (featured in the New York Times, March, 1996). I like your page a lot! I love art. Sounds like you have been in the art business for a long time. I have been in the bronze art industry for 10 years. My wife's name is Gena, and we have 5 kids. My brother lives in Phoenix. Nice to find another artist on the internet. Hey, let me know if you know of any foundries looking for a manager. I used to manage Studio America (crew of 13 - small). I do enlargements, fabrication, castings, etc. I work for another artist right now (day job), but I sure would like to find a better paying position, something with benefits. Currently, I am gearing up to do a commission (night job - self employed artist) for the City of Madera. They unanimously voted (mayor and city council) for me to be the artist who designs and installs a memorial bronze for a police officer there who went down in the line of duty. Anyway, nice chattin' with you. Keep up the good work! God bless, Paul.

WOW! Whatta great page! Thank you for sharing, I thoroughly enjoyed learning of the spirit of my instuctor - a person's heart and soul have always meant far more to me than credentials. One is God-given, the other fabricated.
I was born in Yonkers and grew up in the Hudson River Valley, in fact across the street from Jasper Johns. I used to shovel his driveway in the winter. When I was about 10 years old I critiqued his work "Basketweave" as only a 10-year old can. Upon looking at this 10'x10' canvas covered with crosshatchings of lines in all shades of brown, I asked ..."yeah, but can you DRAW anything? :):)
Yes, I was bent on making my living as an artist, to my mother's dismay. I was accepted to the Harriman School of Graphic design when I was a senior in H.S. but the college folded that same year. It's nice to see evidence that dreams never die. They may fade in and out in their brilliance in our lives, but they NEVER die.
Thank you again for having shared an unseen part of yourself with us. Sincerely, Vanessa

Your work is beautiful, it reminds me of the clear and smooth lines of Brancusi and the organic qualities found in the work of Henry Moore. Best of luck to you. By the way your "work in progress" couldbe titled "Family". From the moment I set my eyes on it "family"is the first thing that popped into my head. As for Susan's work, I find it reminiscent of Dubuffet.

Hello Andrew: I am glad to see two new additions to the ISC Portfolio section in the last week or so, one of which is yours. I am there too,and I follow this web site regularly, with the hopes that it will become an active site for discussions about figural sculpture. I don't think the market gives this type of art the recognition it deserves. Ann Bedrick is another figural sculptor in the Portfolio and she is a principle contributor to the Discussion Forum. If you have time, please participate. Anything you might say about casting in stainless steel will be especially helpful to readers, I am sure.

Wonderful additions to your site. Haven't seen you in years Andy. Is that beard new or is that a blast-from-the-past? Your daughter's prints are excellent. Must be good blood. Looking forward to putting your workinto the ISC Portfolio Web site. Should bring in many more fortunate souls to see your work.

I want to share with my visitors Leonardo da Vinci's 24-ft Il Cavallo, enlarged and to be cast in bronze by the Tallix Art Foundry of Beacon, NY. Tallix afforded me the opportunity to meet a number of people who were very meaningful to me in my development as an artist, some of whom I number today among my closest friends, so this entry is dedicated to them. Tallix is now on-line with their own web site. The link above will take you there. Clicking here will take you directly to the 500-yr old Il Cavallo story, and here to the reaction from Milan in anticipation of the 1999 installation. AC

Good to see your work is getting worldwide attention.When we were struggling math students at Youngstown State University, andworking together in the local television coalmine at $2.80 an hour, who dreamed you would rise above it all to demonstrate such artistic prowess. I am proud to be your friend and I take consolation in sharing your birthdate... 6 years later. (We are getting old.) Regards to Marion... Marc Howard

Andrew Conti, SCULPTOR?? All I remember is Andrew Conti, OHS MATH TEACHER! My brother gave me your URL. I'm glad to see that you've been keeping busy. You and Fiorella are the only two OHS teachers that I respect to this day. And I bet Fiorella doesn't have a web page! Regards to all, John Bast (OHS '73)*

Tutti di complimenti, Andy! How elegantly presented. It's a thrill for me to see you in action in this way. I'm really interested about the nuts and bolts of setting up your home page- how long it took, what kind of technical help you needed, if any..., how much it cost. I'm so new to all of this and it's so exciting. I've given your address to other Sydneysiders who have been complaining about airy fairy stuff relating to art on the net. This should help 'up the game', as they say here. I was tickled to read my name in your bio- thank you for that. You may want it to read Sydney,Australia instead of the unknown suburb of Allambie Hts. Looking forward to hearing from you. Great stuff- well done. Vanessa

Good start, Andy! I assume that you will expand it to feature many of your other avocations.
