Sabin's works are owned by museums and private collectors around the world, and he's been favorably reviewed in the New York Times, Washington Post, and many international journals.\nHe's currently in the process of sculpting the U.S. National World War I Memorial in Washington, D.C \u2014 a 60-foot wall of bronze with 38 figures, scheduled for completion in 2023.\nIn our engaging conversation, Sabin and I discuss:\n- The story behind the Memorial, and the technological and traditional processes that have gone into making it\n- Sabin's bi-cultural childhood in the US and Italy, and how they combined to make them the artist he is\n- How a bit of insight from his wife Traci transformed the memorial into something greater and more universal than he could have imagined\u00a0\n- How failure can be a gift and a sign of the orderliness of the universe, and how that's come true in his life over and over again\n- Why his war memorial isn't a war memorial, but a piece to heal humanity.\n\u00a0\nSabin Howard makes artwork that will outlive us all, so it was deeply moving to me to speak to a man who not only shares my Humanist values, but who also labors so tirelessly and skillfully to bring them forward into our modern era, which is so desperately in need of them.\nSpecial thanks to Mark Puchinsky and Traci for making this conversation possible.\nTo visit Sabin Howard on the web, click here.\nTo visit Sabin Howard on Instagram, click here.\nTo learn more about the National World War I memorial, click here.\nTo listen to Sabin give a fascinating lecture about the process of developing the memorial, click here.\nTo see Michelangelo\u2019s \u201cLast Judgment\u201d, click here.\nTo see the Riace bronze sculptures claimed from beneath the sea, click here.\nTo order \u201cDrawing On the Right Side of the Brain\u201d, click here.\nTo order \u201cHas Modernism Failed\u201d by Suzi Gablik, click here.\nTo visit Mark Puchinsky on Instagram, click here.\nTo learn more about Sabin\u2019s wife Traci Slatton, click here.\nVisit https://renofmen.com to sign up to be notified about exciting upcoming news.\nConnect with us on Instagram and Twitter.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/077d5416-18ed-4332-a23d-bbdca2b970df/j_NeNa4rnItxJ1OYds7sRGv3.jpg"}
