Dr. Virginia Hirsch

Quiet harbor is a work in pastels (intensely colored chalk) done by Dr. Virginia Hirsch, a retired MPS coordinator who worked for the department that included Recreation, Facilities and Maintenance and School Safety.  The picture is of a small boat dock just off the main marina in the City of Bayfield, WI on Lake Superior.  The boat looks like an older model craft that is waiting for the weekend fisherman.  The lake was very calm on the day that the picture was done.

His collected works are a panoply of objects including ceramic trophies for winners of the Arlington Million, artistic magazine cover shots, illustrated children's books, abstract and representative stain-glass pieces, and Mask (Who Meeeeee?), a screen print and lithograph composition that is part of the MoMA collection. Danner also uses his skills as an artist in residence for Roosevelt Middle School of the Arts in Milwaukee. At this school and others, Danner has guided countless children in the creation of individual works of art and large-scale installations.
