Quotes

"Dale Lewis' spirited furniture combines an attitude of childlike playfulness with a mature appreciation for emphatic sensual form...and indeed his pieces transcend functionality to become inventive sculptural works in their own right."   

-Peter Baldaia, Chief Curator - Huntsville Museum of Art; Huntsville, AL.

"Dale allows the material to serve as his voice...the quality of the color or grain may suggest a literal as well as a symbolic reference." "...The objects are transmitting to their viewer the artist's own sense of outlandish fun.  In other words, a chair can be more than a thing to sit on, or it may be just that.  Dale Lewis has discovered, apparently, quite intuitively something that many artists never learn; that one of art's chief virtues is its metaphorical versatility as it serves as a vehicle for ideas, feeling and opinions common to human experience."  

-Margaret Lynn Ausfield, Curator of Painting and Sculpture - Montgomery Museum of Fine Art; Montgomery, AL
