UAB outdoor sculpture, circa 2000
June 2021 Image of the Month
Installed in front of UAB's Bell Theatre, Central Axis, a cast iron, concrete, and steel piece by artist Harold "Skip" Van Houten, was acquired for the university's permanent collection as part of the 1996-1997 Samuel B. Barker Outdoor Sculpture Competition.  The competition was named in honor of arts patron and benefactor Dr. Samuel B. Barker, inaugural dean of the UAB Graduate School and a member of the university faculty for more than thirty years.  Dr. Barker, who acquired many art works for UAB, thought that a university should place art where students would experience it on a regular basis.
