Dan Curry

I grew up in the St. Louis area during the 50’s and 60’s, was drafted into the army in 1970 and met my wife, Donna in Philadelphia in 1971. Donna noticed my casual interest in art and her encouragement was important in my decision to pursue training first at the Philadelphia College of Art (now University of the Arts) and later at The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts from 1973-77. When you visit my web-site (www.dan-curry.com) my exhibition history shows frequent and on-going regional involvement and also national and international presence while being recognized by education administrators in the Job Corps program and my professional colleagues who have included me in shows in the Cairo Opera House Contemporary Art Gallery in Egypt, US Capitol and the UN buildings in New York and South Africa. My exhibit in the US Capitol in 1997 was sponsored by a US Senator and accompanied by his nomination for the National Medal of Arts for my programming in Job Corps.

Taking you on a journey to places in time creates a lasting impression. The Wollombi valley is the perfect environment to reflect on nature! Rich with Australian history & significant indigenous culture, amazing rock art dating back to at least 15,000 years in the surrounding Yengo National Park & locations. My inspiration comes from the heart within & there is no other place than the Wilds of the Wollombi valley that I would rather be…
