The Sounds of Sound Sculpture
At Link Library, I found a phonodisc which collects the works of several prominent sound sculptors. Reinhold Marxhausen was one of the featured artists. The description called all the artists "founding fathers" in the field of musical sculpture. These first photos show his work "Throne Dome" and the others show info about the record itself. You can find it in Link Library's phonodisc collection and play it at the library.

Henry Koenig
Koenig was a contemporary of Marxhausen's. Koenig taught art appreciation classes and built an impressive art collection. The Koenig collection was donated to Concordia, and many of the art exhibitions displayed at the Marxhausen gallery draw from the collection.
This is a relief clay portrait by Marxy.
Lincoln State Capitol photos
These old photos show Marxy working on the mosaics for the Nebraska Unicameral building.
Lint Pieces
Here is one of Amber Konz's posts from the early days of the blog. I have pictures of Marxy's other works with lint and will be posting them soon.
