His talk focused on the art and inspirations of 16<sup>th<\/sup> century artist Giovanni Angelo Montorsoli. He spoke of Montorsoli\u2019s close relationship with the great sculptor and painter Michelangelo, who helped him get commissions and consistently asked for Montorsoli\u2019s aid on many of his own projects.\u00a0Director of DOMA, Robert G. La France adds, \u201cMontorsoli worked in Michelangelo\u2019s workshop, and was even permitted to finish some of the master\u2019s works&#8230;.This is a wonderful work of art\u2014and the closest you can come to seeing a Michelangelo in Muncie.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alasko\u2019s talk was very friendly and intelligent. You could tell he loved learning and talking about the artist. In fact, when I spoke with him at the reception in the museum\u2019s sculpture court after his talk, he said that he wanted to know everything about Montorsoli and is actually going back to Italy before the end of the year. He also said, when talking about the <em>Redeemer<\/em>, \u201cI love this piece. It\u2019s weird. I love it, and I love that it\u2019s here.\u201d Ball State is a school that has a sort of history with sculpture, what with the school\u2019s commission of Beneficence in the Quad. Mr. Alasko was a great man to meet and listen to speak and it was great to hear him sing us praises about both the sculpture and the museum itself.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_993\" style=\"width: 226px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2014\/10\/02114531\/tl2011-003-002v01.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-993\" class=\"wp-image-993 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2014\/10\/02114531\/tl2011-003-002v01.jpg?w=216\" alt=\"TL2011.003.002v01\" width=\"216\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2014\/10\/02114531\/tl2011-003-002v01.jpg 648w, https:\/\/bsu-wpe-blogs.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2014\/10\/02114531\/tl2011-003-002v01-216x300.jpg 216w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 216px) 100vw, 216px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-993\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Christ the Redeemer depicted as Zeus<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As you can tell, this sculpture is a very interesting\u00a0and highly acclaimed by DOMA staff and visitors alike.\u00a0Director of Education Tania Said Schuler remarks, \u201cthe Montorsoli bust \u2018Christ the Redeemer Depicted as Zeus\u2019 draws a lot of interest from visitors.
