Kura: Prophetic Messenger

By Richard Bresnahan

In August 2020, Richard Bresnahan’s sculpture Kura: Prophetic Messenger became the first permanent installation of the Jon Hassler Sculpture Garden on the grounds of Saint John’s Abbey and University in Collegeville, Minnesota. This book is a companion to the sculpture. It serves to document facets of the sculpture’s making, describing some of the people, thought processes, materials, and stories that compose Kura: Prophetic Messenger.

The book was published in conjunction with the dedication of the sculpture in October 2021.
